Black Myth Wukong is largely inspired by the Chinese Legend of the Monkey King. It is based on the Western novel “Journey to the West” where the protagonist travels to the western lands in search of ancient manuscripts. The iconic staff of Son Wukong, Ruyi Jingu Bang, will be your main weapon as you hack and slash your way while also using magical spells.

There have been countless renditions based on this story and its plot, including the acclaimed Dragon Ball series as well. It is yet to be seen how lore-accurate the proceedings of Black Myth Wukong will be. However, fans can expect a decent share of action with difficult bosses and visually appealing graphics. Black Myth Wukong will supposedly have a linear progression that follows a Sekiro-esque play style. It is also going to share elements reminiscent to the souls-like games.
