Phantom Blade Zero<\/em>‘s true ending<\/strong> is called “Final Battle”. You can experience four different endings, but this is only one that will connect all the dots, allowing you to gain a better understanding of the story. You will need to complete a list of side quests before reaching the last boss fight if you want to see what the developers consider the perfect ending to Soul’s journey.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But don’t fret. We put together this guide to explain how to unlock the true ending in <\/strong>Phantom Blade Zero<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n
<\/p>\n
\n How to unlock the true ending in Phantom Blade Zero \n <\/h2>\n
To experience what is considered the true ending in Phantom Blade Zero<\/em>, you must have completed the following quests:<\/p>\n
\n
\n “Secrets at the Heart of the Lake”\n <\/li>\n
\n “Bloodline Awakening”\n <\/li>\n
\n All of Quick Hand Zhang’s questline\n <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
These are all secondary quests, and not mandatory to progress the campaign. However, if you don’t finish them before reaching the peak of Mount Soulrend<\/strong>, you won’t unlock the true ending. We suggest focusing on completing these quests before entering the Mirage State<\/strong> area in Pangzhen. Completing the “Secrets at the Heart of the Lake” first is the best option<\/strong>, as it unlocks an area where you will find a L\u00f3ng Pillar for the “Bloodline Awakening” quest, and a few treasures for Zhang.<\/p>\n
Before you complete these missions, you must have certain items. First, complete the “Illusory Pipa” side quest<\/strong> to receive the Illusory Pipa weapon. Next, progress in the campaign to obtain the Flame Mane phantom edge<\/strong>. Once you have it, you must unlock both the Crimson Manor and the Mountain of Imprisonment, to obtain the two Crystal Puppet Eyes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
After completing these quests, you’ll just need to proceed with the main quest and head to the peak of Mount Soulrend to start the true ending.<\/p>\n\n
<\/p>\n
\n How to complete the ‘Bloodline Awakening’ quest in Phantom Blade Zero \n <\/h2>\n
For the “Bloodline Awakening” side quest, you need to destroy five L\u00f3ng Pillars<\/strong>. When you interact with one, you’ll battle the Gold-Masked One. The further you progress through the game, the harder these fights become. Losing is not an option, as you must win the duels to destroy the pillars.<\/p>\n
Here’s where you will find each pillar and the nearest bell to teleport:<\/p>\n
\n
\n Weeping Creek Valley<\/strong> (Weeping Creek L\u00f3ng Pillar bell)\n <\/li>\n
While backtracking to most of these pillars is relatively fast as there are bells nearby, you should try to destroy the one inside the Four Guardians’ Mirror<\/strong> dimension before advancing into the area, since you can’t teleport using the bells inside the Phantom Illusionist Ruins<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n
<\/p>\n
\n How to complete the ‘Secrets at the Heart of the Lake’ quest in Phantom Blade Zero \n <\/h2>\n
To complete the “Secrets at the Heart of the Lake” side quest, you must collect the four Acolyte masks<\/strong> and take them to the mirror on the northwest side of Meigu Lake<\/strong>. These are rewards you obtain for defeating the Acolytes bosses. To challenge them, you must find their respective scarecrows<\/strong> and interact with them. Like with the pillars, you must progress through the story to unlock the areas where these boss fights take place. Here’s where you will find each one:<\/p>\n
