Black Myth - Wukong Review

Black Myth: Wukong is an action-RPG based on the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. The game features fast-paced combat inspired by the abilities of the Monkey King, Sun Wukong, including shapeshifting, magical attacks, and a combo system. The story is set after the original novel and features familiar characters, though the narrative is largely self-contained and might be challenging for those unfamiliar with Journey to the West. While the game shines in its boss battles, the sections in between are often lacking in engaging content, featuring linear level design, a dearth of enemies, and some frustrating gameplay elements. Despite these flaws, Black Myth: Wukong is praised for its impressive visuals and the unique experience it offers as a boss-focused game.
