Black Myth: Wukong is an action RPG rooted in Chinese mythology. You shall set out as the Destined One to venture into the challenges and marvels ahead, to uncover the obscured truth beneath the veil of a glorious legend from the past.
I’m surprised so many say they never heard about it. It was all over the place when a gameplay trailer was shown a few years ago. David Jaffe even made a video about how he didn’t understand the hype, and then took it all back once the trailer reached the boss fight.
I mean I saw it, but it immediately got filed under “Just another pretty-in-renders soulsy clone”. There are so many thousands of them, they’re just some background buzz in game releases.
And I’ll readily admit, I don’t even know whether it is a soulslike, and neither do I care to find out. That’s how invisible this game is when you scroll past it, as it immediately mascerades as a game in an ocean of utterly samey titles.
I enjoy a lot of games but don’t follow IGN or similar outlets. I did pay attention to e3 when it happened but that’s no longer a thing. My news comes mostly from steam store/Lemmy gaming communities/memes Meaning I’ve never hear of it either until I saw Dunkey’s satire video.
Shoutout to people in the other thread fighting about how nobody has heard of this game and that it isn’t highly anticipated
I’ve barely heard about it, and here in the US, I would not call it highly anticipated, but perhaps the story is different in China.

I’ve never heard of it. But we all live in our own spheres
