Phantom Blade Zero System Requirements

Official PC requirements for Phantom Blade Zero, including minimum, recommended, ray tracing, and path tracing performance targets.

Quick answer

S-GAME’s official minimum target for Phantom Blade Zero lists an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 6GB or AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT 8GB, 16 GB of memory, and 1080p / 30 FPS with upscaling enabled. The recommended target lists an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti 8GB or AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT 12GB, 16 GB of memory, and 1440p / 60 FPS with upscaling enabled. An SSD is required for both tiers.

S-GAME also publishes separate GPU and performance targets for ray tracing and path tracing: an RTX 5060 8GB for 1080p / 60 FPS with upscaling enabled, and an RTX 5080 16GB for 2160p / 60 FPS with upscaling enabled. These are pre-release requirements and may change before launch. For the current release timing, see the Phantom Blade Zero release-date guide.

CPU Intel Core i7-8700K / AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Intel Core i5-10600K / AMD Ryzen 5 5600X
GPU NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 6GB / AMD Radeon RX 5500 XT 8GB NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti 8GB / AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT 12GB
Memory 16 GB 16 GB

Storage SSD required SSD required
Performance target 1080p / 30 FPS with upscaling enabled 1440p / 60 FPS with upscaling enabled

The official S-GAME requirements page publishes these tiers. The Steam store listing currently repeats the same Minimum and Recommended specifications as storefront confirmation.

Minimum requirements explained

The Minimum tier is S-GAME’s published target for 1080p at 30 FPS with upscaling enabled. It requires 16 GB of memory, DirectX 12, and an SSD, alongside either listed CPU and GPU pairing. The target does not describe native 1080p performance, and it is not an independent guarantee of a locked 30 FPS in every scene.

Use the published components as a comparison point for your PC. They are the developer’s pre-release target, not a substitute for benchmarks or a promise that hardware outside the listed configurations will perform the same way.

The Recommended tier targets 1440p at 60 FPS with upscaling enabled. It retains the 16 GB memory and SSD requirements, while listing an Intel Core i5-10600K or AMD Ryzen 5 5600X and an RTX 3060 Ti 8GB or RX 6700 XT 12GB.

This is the official target for the stated configuration. S-GAME has not used this requirement sheet to publish native-resolution results, performance without upscaling, or results for other graphics cards. Those details should not be assumed from the Recommended label alone.

Ray tracing requirements

For its Ray Tracing Recommended target, S-GAME lists an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 8GB and 1080p / 60 FPS with upscaling enabled.

The official ray-tracing row does not separately publish a CPU, memory, operating-system, DirectX, storage, or AMD GPU requirement. This page therefore does not present the Minimum or Recommended rows as if they were a complete official ray-tracing configuration.

Path tracing requirements

For Path Tracing Recommended, S-GAME lists an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 16GB and 2160p / 60 FPS with upscaling enabled. 2160p is commonly called 4K UHD, but the specification is kept here in S-GAME’s published wording.

As with the ray-tracing target, the official path-tracing row does not separately state CPU, memory, operating-system, DirectX, storage, or AMD GPU requirements. The RTX 5080 is the listed GPU for that 2160p / 60 FPS path-tracing target; it is not presented as a general requirement to play the game.

How much storage does Phantom Blade Zero need?

An SSD is required by both the Minimum and Recommended official tiers. The reviewed S-GAME requirement sheet and Steam listing do not publish a required free-space capacity, install size, or download size. Until an official source provides a number, the storage capacity remains unconfirmed.

Can my PC run Phantom Blade Zero?

Compare your operating system, CPU, GPU, memory, and storage type with the official tiers above, then read the performance targets with their upscaling qualifier. That can show which published target is closest to your hardware, but it cannot confirm that a particular PC will achieve a target. Laptop graphics, unlisted components, game settings, and later updates all need separate evidence.

FAQ

How much RAM does Phantom Blade Zero require?

The official Minimum and Recommended tiers both list 16 GB of memory.

Does Phantom Blade Zero require an SSD?

Yes. Both official tiers say an SSD is required, but neither reviewed source gives a capacity figure.

S-GAME lists an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti 8GB or AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT 12GB for its Recommended tier.

What GPU is listed for ray tracing?

S-GAME lists an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 8GB for its 1080p / 60 FPS ray-tracing target with upscaling enabled.

What GPU is listed for path tracing?

S-GAME lists an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080 16GB for its 2160p / 60 FPS path-tracing target with upscaling enabled.

How much storage space is required?

An SSD is required. No official free-space, install-size, or download-size figure is published in the reviewed sources.
