Phantom Blade Zero Weapons and Phantom Edges Explained

Confirmed weapon information

The newest official count is more than 30 main weapons and 25 Phantom Edges. Earlier official material described more than 20 Phantom Edges; PlayStation's August 2026 State of Play article provides the newer, exact count. The confirmed combat loadout has two of each equipped at once.

What is the difference?

The official gameplay description presents main weapons as the core melee and ranged arsenal. It describes Phantom Edges as less conventional secondary weapons that create additional player expression through specialized attacks.

Upgrades, accessories, and reforging

PlayStation says weapons can be upgraded and paired with accessories. The State of Play examples include attacking from range and using summons, while defeating some enemies can expand the available arsenal.

An upgraded weapon can be reforged to return the materials invested in it, allowing those materials to be used on another weapon. That confirms a way to redirect upgrade resources; the official article does not provide every upgrade cost, accessory effect, weapon name, or unlock location.

Not a tier list

This is not an all-weapons list and does not rank weapons. A trustworthy ranking needs final-game stats, encounters, and balance evidence after release.

Read Combat for the larger system, or Seven Stars for an officially shown encounter.
