Phantom Blade Zero Boss Order, All Endings & True Ending Conditions
The region order, the bosses and drops public guides agree on, all four named endings, and the checklist for the true ending in Phantom Blade Zero.
S-GAME's official site has no boss list, boss order or ending page. Everything below comes from public guides read on 9 November 2026. Where those guides disagree, the page says so instead of picking a winner.
How this was checked
Boss names, region order, drops and ending conditions come from KeenGamer, GameNavi and GamingRoute, read on 9 November 2026. S-GAME's official site and store pages do not cover bosses or endings. None of this was checked in a full playthrough here, so treat it as a public-source summary rather than a tested route.
Region order
The Prologue leads into nine named regions. GamingRoute folds Mirage Estate into Pangzhen; the rest of the sequence is the same across sources.
| # | Region |
|---|---|
| 1 | Prologue |
| 2 | Weeping Creek Valley |
| 3 | Crimson Forest |
| 4 | Village of Lu |
| 5 | Pangzhen |
| 6 | Mandate Encampment |
| 7 | Meigu Lake |
| 8 | Mountain of Imprisonment |
| 9 | Mirage Estate |
| 10 | Mount Soulrend |
Boss order: the part sources agree on
Public lists diverge on how to count tutorial fights, repeat encounters and optional bosses. The first three weapon drops are consistent.
| # | Boss | Drop | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Jagged Steel, the Frenzied Brute | Jagged Steel (one-handed weapon) | First boss with a confirmed drop after the Prologue |
| 2 | Peng Meng, the Axemaster | Dread Axe (Phantom Edge) | His axe breaks the chains near the Outpost bell |
| 3 | The Hunt | Hunter's Chain Sickle (Phantom Edge) | Doubles as a grapple tool |
| 4 onward | [VERIFY IN GAME] | [VERIFY IN GAME] | Public lists disagree from here |
From the fourth boss onward the orders stop matching. The gap is not a small one: different lists insert optional bosses at different points, and some split a single encounter into several entries. A numbered list that continues past this table would be a guess.
Mount Soulrend and the final bosses
All endings except Undying Grudge resolve at Mount Soulrend.
The sequence public guides describe is The Crusher and The Saw, then The Last Chance bell, then Leng Tu and Meng Hua. On the true-ending path, Zuo Shang follows Meng Hua.| Boss | Drop |
|---|---|
| Leng Tu | [VERIFY IN GAME] |
| Meng Hua | The Lady's Fan |
| Zuo Shang, the True Lóng | Aureate, Radiant Heart |
Zuo Shang only appears on the true-ending path, through the gold portal on Soulrend Cliff. Meng Hua ends the normal path.
The four named endings
| Ending | How it happens | Final boss |
|---|---|---|
| Final Battle | Every true-ending requirement met | Zuo Shang, the True Lóng |
| Long's Roar | Every true-ending requirement except the Long Pillars; at least one pillar left unfinished | Zuo Shang, in a duel the game does not let you win |
| Annihilation | The default when any other true-ending requirement is missing | Meng Hua |
| Undying Grudge | The 66 Days counter reaches zero | None |
Long's Roar is the near-miss ending. Soul reaches Zuo Shang, but the duel ends with Soul dead. It also unlocks the Blizzard outfit.
Annihilation is what happens by default. Meng Hua ends the run, then revives and destroys the Wulin.
Undying Grudge exists only in 66 Days mode. There is no final boss; Zuo Shang pours wine over Soul's grave.
True ending checklist
- Finish every purple-icon Tale before the Last Chance bell. Purple Tales are the ones tied to the true ending. The bell closes them.
- Complete Secrets at the Heart of the Lake, including the conversation with Void.
- Clear all five Long Pillars in Bloodline Awakening.
- Complete Quick Hand Zhang's requests. His rewards are the Flying Dagger and Goldblaze Phantom Edges.
- Defeat Zhu Yuan and Bi Feng. KeenGamer lists both as required; GameNavi's checklist does not. Do them before the bell to be safe.
Two points of no return
Entering Mirage Estate locks every unfinished pre-Mirage Tale. The Last Chance bell is the second lock: after it, you cannot leave the boss sequence. Clear both checks before you commit.
66 Days mode
- Unlocks after you beat the game once.
- The counter starts at 66. Every death costs one day.
- Reaching zero ends the run for good and gives the Undying Grudge ending.
- KeenGamer says the mode runs on Hellwalker difficulty.
- Outside the mode, the sixty-six days are story, not a fail timer.
What is still unconfirmed
| Item | Status |
|---|---|
| Boss total | Public lists say 54, 61, 62 or 74. No official figure. [VERIFY IN GAME] |
| Boss order from the fourth boss | [VERIFY IN GAME] |
| Boss HP | Published values are for Pathbreaker difficulty only. Do not compare them across difficulties. [VERIFY IN GAME] |
| Zhu Yuan and Bi Feng | Listed as true-ending requirements by some guides, absent from others. [VERIFY IN GAME] |
| Enemy respawns and boss-drop farming | One guide says enemies never respawn and boss drops cannot be farmed. Not confirmed. [VERIFY IN GAME] |
| Full weapon table | S-GAME says more than 30 primary weapons and more than 20 Phantom Edges. A complete drop table needs an in-game check. |

Frequently Asked Questions
How many bosses are in Phantom Blade Zero?
There is no official count. Public lists range from 54 to 74 depending on whether tutorial fights, repeat encounters, optional bosses and multi-phase forms get their own entry. Do not treat any single total as confirmed.
How many endings does Phantom Blade Zero have?
Four endings have names: Final Battle (true), Long's Roar, Annihilation and Undying Grudge. Some guides count individual quest outcomes separately and reach a higher number. The names and triggers below follow the four-ending breakdown.
What is required for the true ending?
Finish every purple-icon Tale before the Last Chance bell, complete Secrets at the Heart of the Lake including the conversation with Void, clear all five Long Pillars in Bloodline Awakening, and finish Quick Hand Zhang's requests. Some guides also require Zhu Yuan and Bi Feng, so do them before the bell.
Can I go back after the Last Chance bell?
No. Public guides describe the bell as a point of no return, and you cannot leave the boss sequence after it. Entering Mirage Estate also locks any unfinished pre-Mirage Tales.
What is 66 Days mode?
A mode unlocked after one clear. The counter starts at 66, every death costs one day, and reaching zero ends the run permanently with the Undying Grudge ending.
Which bosses drop which weapons?
The confirmed early drops are Jagged Steel from Jagged Steel, Dread Axe from Peng Meng, and Hunter's Chain Sickle from The Hunt. Meng Hua drops The Lady's Fan. The true final boss, Zuo Shang, drops Aureate and Radiant Heart. The rest of the drop table still needs an in-game check.
