To celebrate the Chinese New Year, developer Game Science has created a mini stop-motion trailer, teasing the release date for their upcoming game Black Myth: Wukong. The souls-like RPG that follows the story of Sun Wukong from the famous 16th-century Chinese novel Journey to the West will be available to the public in the summer of 2024.
The game was first teased in 2020, with a 13-minute gameplay trailer coming out of nowhere and surprising potential players with interesting graphics and fun-looking gameplay. Now we know that the fans of the original trailer will have waited at least four years for the game to come out. Though there were mixed reactions to the release window announcement, players seem to prefer a game taking longer to come out if it means that it will be in a better state.
Black Myth: Wukong has been slowly teased on its official YouTube channel, and we have seen many bits and pieces of what’s to come. With a new video coming out every Chinese New Year, we now know that we can still expect many other trailers and previews by 2024. Though we didn’t see much gameplay this time, we still saw a tiger enemy that looked like a fun fight.

We don’t know if the game will be on any platform other than the PC. However, considering developer Game Science’s statement on the game’s site that says Black Myth: Wukong will be on the “other main-stream consoles,” it is fair to assume that we will also see an Xbox and PlayStation version. However, there is no way to know by then if we will still be using the same consoles. We know that Black Myth: Wukong is slowly building up a lot of hype.
