the xbox version of black myth: wukong has been delayed. the official reason given before was optimization issues. recently, the well-known uncle extas1s said that the delay of the xbox series x|s version of black myth: wukong was due to memory leak issues. however, this rumor may not be accurate.


according to forbes and ign, both media outlets quoted sources as saying that the reason why "black myth: wukong" did not launch on xbox at the first launch was not because of technical problems, but because of the exclusive agreement between sony and game science, which has never been made public by both parties.

ign reports:

a source familiar with the matter told ign that the delay in black myth: wukong's release on xbox was due to an exclusivity deal with sony, confirming forbes' report and what ign has heard elsewhere.

sources deny that black myth: wukong was delayed because of a memory leak, which was spread by spanish leaker extas1s after a conversation with xbox developers at gamescom. they claim that because of this, black myth: wukong failed the error detection test and was therefore delayed indefinitely.

however, ign has learned that xbox has not received any reports of technical issues that caused the delay of black myth: wukong. sources said that the delay of xbox was due to an exclusive agreement that neither game science nor sony disclosed. sources said that rumors about xbox technical problems are "inaccurate."

ign has reached out to game science and sony for comment on these reports.
