VITURE's latest XR glasses seem like they are directly inspired by Phantom Blade Zero.
VITURE and S-GAME
Phantom Blade Zero is set to be one of the most intriguing action games to be released this year, but it seems that playing it on a standard screen isn’t immersive enough. VITURE has collaborated with developer S-GAME to develop a unique pair of XR glasses specifically designed for the game.
Named the VITURE x Phantom Blade Zero: Phantom Beast, these limited-edition glasses transform VITURE’s existing Beast XR hardware with a striking redesign influenced by the game’s fusion of wuxia, martial arts, and punk fantasy. They are available for pre-order at $599 and will officially launch on October 29, coinciding with the release of Phantom Blade Zero.
VITURE has truly unveiled this special edition.
Often, special-edition gaming hardware consists of nothing more than a new color or a logo added to the design. However, VITURE and S-GAME have taken it a step further. The temples of the glasses showcase metal accents inspired by the protagonist Soul as he draws his sword, and the included neck strap features patterns drawn from traditional wuxia art. Even the software aspects have been updated, with the glasses’ on-screen menus redesigned to mimic Phantom Blade Zero’s interface.

The carrying case may be the most intricate component. Instead of opening like an ordinary glasses case, it slides apart as if a sword is being drawn from its sheath, revealing a vibrant red interior. The entire package comes in a collector-style box, complete with a miniature Mó Sanguine sword, artwork cards, stickers, and a themed lens cloth. Additionally, anyone who places an order by November 5 will receive a scroll-style map based on the game’s universe. This collaboration marks VITURE’s first partnership with a Chinese game studio, although it’s not their first time intersecting with gaming, as the company has previously launched Cyberpunk 2077-themed Luma Cyber XR glasses.
Ultimately, these remain XR glasses.
The modifications made for Phantom Blade Zero are primarily cosmetic, meaning the underlying technology is the same as VITURE’s Beast XR glasses. This includes Sony Micro-OLED displays that can create a virtual screen size of up to 174 inches when viewed from four meters away. Each eye receives a 1200p image, along with a 120Hz refresh rate and peak brightness of 1,250 nits. There’s also nine-level electrochromic dimming, 3DoF spatial tracking, HARMAN-powered spatial audio, and five different display modes. PC users can even utilize a massive 32:9 virtual display with games that support super-ultrawide resolutions.

Connecting these glasses is quite simple as well. With USB-C, they are directly compatible with Windows PCs, Macs, iPhones, Android devices, and Steam Deck. Console gamers will require additional VITURE hardware, such as the Pro Mobile Dock for PlayStation and Xbox systems. At $599, the Phantom Beast certainly isn't an impulse purchase for gaming gear. However, for someone looking to immerse themselves in the world of Phantom Blade Zero this October, watching Soul wield a sword on a virtual 174-inch screen seems like an appropriately extravagant experience.
