About Phantom PHANTOM OF INFERNO NITRO ARCHIVE
Phantom PHANTOM OF INFERNO NITRO ARCHIVE is the 2026 Steam release of Nitroplus's debut neo-noir visual novel. A Japanese tourist is kidnapped in the United States, stripped of his memories, and trained as the assassin Zwei under Ein, Inferno's Phantom. The Steam build matches the 2013 Windows port of the Xbox 360 remake: anime character art, the 2009 TV cast, Japanese voices, and English or Japanese text. Start with the getting started guide, then use the walkthrough and endings guide when you want every route. Roster pages live under characters, PC specs under system requirements.
