First shown: The pre-order trailer. A Chinese preview lists him among the hidden bosses it met in chapter 1. Press-reported
Donnie Yen provides his face and motion capture.
- In the pre-order trailer a long-haired man fights the player in a burning courtyard from about 9:22 to 10:30, just before the Donnie Yen title card at 10:39. No name plate appears in that duel, so this page does not count it as his fight. Official Pre-order trailer, Phantom Blade Zero on YouTube, 9:22.
Sources so far: two official texts (the Steam announcement and the PlayStation Blog), the pre-order trailer’s title card, and two Chinese write-ups: one on his moves, one placing him among the hidden bosses of chapter 1.
Footage and phases
PendingNo official video shows a fight under his name. The duel before his title card in the pre-order trailer is not counted, because no plate names the fighter (see Key facts). Nothing published describes his fight, so there is nothing yet on phases.
