Phantom Blade Zero pre-load date and size leaked, it’s going to be massive!

Phantom Blade Zero is scheduled for release on October 29, and pre-orders have been live since August 11. The game has been developed and published by S-Game and will be available on the PS5 as well as PC. Now, the pre-load date and size of the game have leaked, demanding over 130 GB of storage.

PlayStation fan account PlayStation Game Size has uncovered that Phantom Blade Zero will be available for pre-load from October 27, two days before the official release. More importantly, it will require 134.8 GB of disk space on the PS5. That might have seemed like a lot a few years ago, but games have been growing in size quite rapidly. This kind of storage space is easier to manage on PC or the PS5 Pro, but can be more challenging for base PS5 owners.

If you’ve pre-ordered and want to play the game on day one, there's still time to finish up some of the pending games and make space for Phantom Blade Zero.

There’s also speculation that there will not be a physical disc for the game. Initially, it was expected that S-Game would not join the digital-only bandwagon after a reported Play Asia representative said there would be a physical and digital version. However, the studio has not given any clarity on the same, and it seems more likely that it will, in fact, be a digital-only launch. That’s backed by the Play Asia store listing that shows a “Digital” tag and no reference to a physical disc.
