After four years of development, Black Myth: Wukong is now confirmed to be officially released to players on August 20. Recalling the grand occasion when Game Science released its first real-machine demo video in 2020, one can't help but feel emotional.

Since Black Myth: Wukong is a Chinese game, a 3A masterpiece, and the IP of Journey to the West, this game is bound to attract more attention from the outside world than ordinary games. As the official release date of the game is approaching, the game science team, which has always been low-key, finally remembered to promote the game.



Just this morning, the official blog of Black Myth: Wukong released a message, officially announcing that the game has completed the development of all the content of the official version and will be released as scheduled. Not only that, a new trailer will be released on August 8 to prove that it is "not completely without publicity."



The reality is that the traffic of Black Myth: Wukong is indeed large enough. Just this dynamic alone helped it to rush to the Weibo hot search list.

However, some "inappropriate" comments appeared in the comment section. Yang Qi, the founder of Game Science, openly "undermined" the game, saying that 200 files had been uploaded 7 minutes ago. Some netizens even interpreted the official release of Black Myth: Wukong in a different way.





Jokes aside, at least the new dynamic content released by the Black Myth: Wukong team shows that the development of this game has been completed. And in many cases, keeping a low profile is not a bad thing.

As the saying goes, "the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment." For a new game, it is very important to balance the expectations of players. When CDPR released Cyberpunk 2077, the actual content did not match the promotional content, which led to a backlash in word of mouth. This incident has subsequently sounded a warning to the entire industry.



Of course, due to the special nature of Black Myth: Wukong, players' attention to it has not diminished due to the lack of official publicity. Some people even promoted the game on their own initiative, and the game was featured on the electronic screens in New York's Times Square.



Some players have even made their own countdowns, waiting for the release of Black Myth: Wukong.



"Black Myth: Wukong" is not only of great significance to players, but also plays a role in promoting the domestic game industry. Liang Qiwei, the developer of "Shadow Blade Zero", mentioned in a previous interview:

“I think Black Myth: Wukong will be a huge success, and there will be more games coming. This is definitely the beginning. There will be more and more Chinese developers involved. I know how good they are. Even if they have been engaged in MMO and mobile games before, I fully understand their excellence. There will be more works coming out.”



"Black Myth: Wukong" carries the hopes of too many people. As the launch date approaches, players are increasingly unable to suppress their excitement. In the new trailer released on August 8, there may be new content about the game. Next, let us look forward to the actual performance of this domestic 3A game.
