I seriously suspect the last time we migrated to this new host, we lost a bunch of posts and one such “lost” post is one about the video game Black Myth: Wukong. I swear we did talk about the game because I was overwhelmed by the graphics. If I am sure I did write about it and it is not to be found, it must have been lost when we migrated to a new server a few years ago. Anyhoo, so many years in development, this much-anticipated video game based on Chinese mythology is finally going to be released.
In anticipation of its impending release, the developer and publisher, Game Science, has shared the first launch trailer in both Chinese and English dubs. Before we have a look, here’s a snippet of what is about:
“Black Myth: Wukong is an action RPG rooted in Chinese mythology. The story is based on Journey to the West, one of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature. You shall set out as the Destined One to venture into the challenges and marvels ahead, to uncover the obscured truth beneath the veil of a glorious legend from the past.”
The latest story trailer for Black Myth: Wukong made its debut at TGA 2023. It showcases actual gameplay and cinematic scenes, all recorded on a PC and supporting 4K resolution.
Now for the good news. Black Myth: Wukong will be released on August 20, 2024. Meanwhile, fans can add Black Myth: Wukong to their wishlist on Steam and Epic Games Store as we speak. The game is gearing up for its release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles too.
