    Just breathtaking and story rich

    This is what it means to make a game with love and care and not political and social BIAS. The passion of every person that worked in this AAA title can be felt in every sound design, map, character, and gameplay dynamic.

    I was lucky enough to play it at it's surreal graphics peak, almost burning my PC a couple of times but it was worth every small heart attack i had.

    This game hands on is what the gaming industry should be and what gamers expect from other gamming companies. Take your time be diligent and listen to the community as you create a rich story and gameplay dynamic free of imposing personal, social and political Ideologies.

    Game of the year for sure and i hope this game can win an Academy award for best Short films.

    I hope you all can enjoy this amazing game and it's story. Now if you excuse me, I'm gonna read some Journey To the West.

    What a let down

    First off it runs awful on ps5

    Im getting under 15 fps in some of these boss fights That can be patched I guess tho.

    The game itself is not good, not necessarily bad but definitely not good. The level design is really bad, levels are invisible hallways that pretty much boil down to a series of straight lines, in these levels are a very small number of boring enemies that die in a single hit and borderline can't even hurt you. Exploration is simply walking down paths in a straight line till you find some more crafting materials. Yay.

    The controls on ps5 feel very unresponsive as well, specially the one to heal, if say 30% of the time when I press left bumper to heal nothing happens then I press it again and can heal. This is with full stamina and having flasks left so idk what's going on

    But okay what bout the bosses

    I've done 20 so far and not a single one was particularly memorable, they are extremely easy and mechanically simple and I feel incredibly let down so far.

    Obviously I'm not done yet, I might drop it but I spent $70 so I'm probably gonna finish it. Who knows Mabey it gets much better later on but as it stands the fps is unexpectedly bad for a modern console and that alone makes it not worth playing let alone the many many other flaws.

    Oh and the story / dialogue is so cringe.

    Super Game

    Great game about the monkey king.

    It has a unique way of playing with more than 100 Bosses!

    Great graphics, Great story, Great cinematic.

    Alot of secrets and it has 2 different endings.

    I really enjoy the action of fighting, you can have different weapons (Ruyi Jingu Bang - Staffs) many upgrades with awesome looking.

    The game is kind of God of war but still different.. Worth getting the platinum Trophy 🏆 I would recommend to anyone like action games to give it a try and you wont get be disappointed and its so addictive, for me i cant switch to another game and waiting for the DLC to be release..

    A riveting role player reminiscent of the great 'God of War' games, replacing Greek lore with Chinese mythology

    Assuming the role as staff-wielding primate Destined One, 'Black Myth: Wukong' is a world worth wandering. I've seen it compared to FromSoftware titles but it's not nearly difficult enough to warrant as such, and it's all the better for it. It is first and foremost an adventure, more inviting than punishing. Where it does take a page from the Soulslikes; however, is in the manner of which so much content is below the surface and between the lines. You could blast through the game in just under a day as a boss rush, or you could spend the better part of a week hunting down every boss, collectible, and NPC. It's not so much a story being straightforward with you as it is a sprinkling of parables left to you to solve, which leads to as much active interpretation as it does passive enjoyment.

    The game shines at its best and brightest in boss fights. There are 81 of them, all of which are simply sensational spectacles. Some are rehashed and repetitive, but the audio-visual view is delightful. Gyrating, sparkling dragons spiraling through the air. A corrupted buddha placing his palm on the plains leads to pulsing, splintering, and erupting.

    I'm not particularly familiar with the source text 'Journey to the West,' but I'm inclined to learn based on the gorgeous reconstruction of the world. Each and every area is dripping with detail - vivacious forests and subdued snowfields, intricate temples and rugged rock faces. Demystifying what will come next makes for a pretty powerful lure.

    In conclusion, 'Black Myth: Wukong' is a true triumph. It looks and plays as good as advertised, as if GameScience was bursting onto the scene and declaring: "Every other developer has got some stiff competition." I'm hearing them out, and you should be, too.

    didnt like it

    Black Myth: Wukong was a letdown. It ran poorly with noticeable ghosting and low visual quality. Combat wasn't broken, but it felt boring-mostly light or heavy attacks with the occasional ability. The perfect dodge effect looked cool, but fights lacked variety and depth. The story didn't pull me in, and I found myself not caring about what was happening. Voice acting felt off. Despite the hype, it came off as unpolished and forgettable. I also found navigation frustrating at times-I often wasn't sure where to go or what to do next. Overall i didn't enjoy my time in that game and i wont be playing it again.
