Honoring a 90-Year Legacy
As comics’ first-ever costumed hero, The Phantom has been fighting crime for nearly 90 years. Known as “The Man Who Cannot Die”, Kit Walker has protected the fictional land of Bengalla from piracy, injustice, and corruption for generations. Now, Art of Play brings this legendary character to PC and consoles with a faithful homage that blends classic brawler gameplay with hand-drawn comic book visuals.
