Black Myth: Wukong’s Final Trailer Has Us Weak in the Knees

If you’re as excited as we are about the launch of Black Myth: Wukong on August 20th (THAT’S JUST 12 DAYS FROM NOW!), then you’ll definitely want to check out Game Science’s final trailer.

The latest trailer not only shows off the beauty of the West that Game Science has created, but it gives us an even juicer taste of what we can expect in terms of combat.

Showing off quite a few of the different characters’ abilities that the Monkey King can absorb and use against his enemies, the trailer does an excellent job of getting our drool glands going.

We haven’t been this excited about a souls-like since the release of the Elden Ring DLC, and dare we say, this could well surpass the cult following of FromSoftware’s epic hit if this trailer is anything to go off of.

The game will be released on PS5 at R1,299 for the Standard Edition and R1,499 for the Deluxe Edition, which includes a few digital enhancements and a digital soundtrack. The Standard Edition will set you back R849 on the Epic Games Store and Steam, while an extra R200 will give you the Deluxe Edition. The game does look visually demanding, but the recommended PC hardware requirements don’t seem all that bad:

  • Processor: Intel Core i7-9700 / AMD Ryzen 5 5500
  • Memory: 16 GB RAM
  • Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 / AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT / INTEL Arc A750
  • Storage: 130GB


Let us know in the comments below if you’ve already pre-ordered the game or if you’ll pick it up when it releases.
