VITURE Unveils $599 Phantom Blade Zero XR Glasses Ahead of October 29 Launch

3 articles · Updated · Digital Trends · Aug 27

Summary

  • $599 Phantom Beast XR glasses are now up for pre-order, with VITURE set to ship the limited edition on October 29 alongside Phantom Blade Zero.
  • The collaboration with S-GAME keeps VITURE's Beast XR hardware intact but wraps it in game-specific design touches, from sword-inspired metal temples to menus styled after Phantom Blade Zero's interface.
  • Core specs remain those of the Beast XR: Sony Micro-OLED displays, 1200p per eye, 120Hz refresh, 1,250-nit peak brightness, 3DoF tracking and a virtual screen up to 174 inches.
  • The package leans heavily on collector appeal, adding a scabbard-style case, miniature Mó Sanguine sword, art cards and a scroll-style map for orders placed by November 5.
  • The release is VITURE's first tie-up with a Chinese game studio and extends its gaming crossover strategy after a previous Cyberpunk 2077-themed edition.
