One of 2024's more bizarre stories may have come to a strange conclusion, as a developer from Game Science has posted about Black Myth Wukong's absence from Xbox on Chinese social media platform Weibo. It seems as though rumours surrounding technical limitations being a major culprit behind the game's lack of an Xbox port have some merit after all.
]]>Black Myth Wukong has a few secrets and mysterious questlines for curious players to figure out, and one such quest arises from the Old-Rattle Drum item you acquire in Chapter 2. The Old-Rattle Drum has a strange use that is only revealed to you when you find where to use it, meaning it is easily missed.
]]>Black Myth Wukong is a Souls-adjacent ARPG with over 80 different bosses for players to throw themselves against as they embark on their journey to the West. And there’s good news for those who can’t get enough of the strange creatures you find yourself facing: New Game Plus is available.
]]>Black Myth Wukong not only boasts over 80 bosses to defeat during your journey to the West, but there’s also a lot of key items and resources to look out for, too. For example, if you want to craft the fancy new armor set you have just unlocked, you’ll need Silk.
]]>As I write this, Black Myth: Wukong, the action adventure from China’s Game Science studio, is the most played game on Steam by player count. There are currently 1,400,932 players in-game (with a peak of 1,443,570), surpassing the likes of Counter-Strike 2, Dota 2, PUBG and all the usual games that occupy Steam’s top five.
]]>Black Myth Wukong is a huge game following you, your less-than-average monkey, on a journey to the West. It’s packed to the brim with intense boss battles that require mastery of both martial arts and patience, and as you dive into the game for the first time, there are a few tips and tricks to be aware of that might help you out.
]]>As you commence with your journey to the West in Black Myth Wukong, there’ll eventually come a point where you want to upgrade your gear. The opportunity to craft new weapons and armors crops up regularly, with bosses providing us with new recipes to put together at Keeper’s Shrines, but upgrading your Gourd and Drinks requires a few more steps.
]]>There are many strange items you can find and collect as you journey to the West in Black Myth Wukong, and while some of these will improve your fighting capabilities, others will instead grant you more fights to experience. Buddha’s Eyeballs are part of the latter, allowing you to fight it out with a gargantuan boss if you can track down all six of them.
]]>As you progress with your journey to the West in Black Myth Wukong, you will encounter all manner of locked doors leading to the unknown. Some of them are easy to miss, as you’ll find when reexploring areas with newfound knowledge or items, but there is one altar in Sandgate Village that’s unmissable. Though, it does require two specific key items: the Sterness of Stone and Keeness of Tiger.
]]>As you explore Black Myth Wukong and battle it out with bosses galore, there are, fortunately, a few folk that don’t want to kill you outright. The Boar, a drunkard you find lounging around in Chapter 2, is one of them, and he needs your help sobering him up.
]]>As you explore Black Myth Wukong and fight multiple, sometimes amusing, bosses across the vast world on display, you’ll also find yourself encountering unique NPCs. Often, these NPCs have found themselves in some sort of predicament that they demand your assistance with, as is the case with the Man-in-Stone found during Chapter 2.
]]>Black Myth Wukong has a number of bosses for you to fight as you explore the picturesque landscapes of Journey to the West, but there are many more bosses to battle than first meets the eye. Hidden off the beaten path or behind mysterious key items, there are secret bosses to keep your eyes peeled for, and multiple of them require the Loong Scales item.
]]>Black Myth Wukong review's are out, which means you (yes you) can finally learn what all the critics in the gaming space think about this much-anticipated 3rd person action game. We've been waiting on it for quite a while - years in fact! But with that wait finally coming to an end, how good does the game actually feel to play? How rich is its world, and engaging its action?
]]>Earlier this summer, I had the chance to play Black Myth Wukong, a highly-anticipated indie action game from China that has impressed everyone since its first reveal, and been teasing us all with its unique – and gorgeous – gameplay since 2020.
]]>Black Myth Wukong finally got a brand new gameplay trailer at this year's Gamescom Opening Night Live, showing off some brand new footage of the 3rd person action game in action, as well as some new cinematic sneak peaks of what's actually going on in the game. Sadly, we've still not got a firm release date.
