Black Myth: Wukong is an upcoming action role-playing game developed by Game Science. The game has garnered attention for its departure from the Souls-like formula, instead embracing a combat style reminiscent of God of War. The developers have emphasized a focus on satisfying action, offering diverse combat mechanics and a rich exploration of Chinese mythology, complete with formidable boss battles and the protagonist’s unique transformation abilities.
In contrast to traditional Souls-like games, Black Myth: Wukong is designed to provide a more accessible experience while still presenting significant challenges that will demand players’ skills and strategic thinking. Notably, the game will feature linear gameplay, prioritizing storytelling and epic boss encounters over open-world exploration.
Scheduled for release on PC and PS5 in August, with an Xbox Series X/S version to follow, Black Myth: Wukong boasts striking visuals, immersive gameplay, and a distinctive style that positions it as a highly anticipated title for 2024.
