However, it's clear that Black Myth: Wukong isn't without its flaws, as certain aspects could have been executed better. Many players have already voiced their biggest concerns with this new action-RPG. With just a few minor tweaks and additions, the overall experience could be significantly improved. From the absence of a mini-map to the abundance of invisible walls that disrupt immersion, here are some issues that need to be addres

Both Black Myth: Wukong and the new God of War titles take a similar approach to action as well as progression, and both lean heavily into mythological lore, even if it's switched from Norse to Chinese. If you like one of these games, it's likely you'll like the other, but maybe don't play them back to back for fear of burn

Where it becomes slightly tricky to use, is its self-wounding, self-healing mechanic. The Self-Torment ability allows you to wound yourself, which slightly depletes your HP, but at the same time, this imbues your blade with up to four Larv

One of the most influential misconceptions surrounding Black Myth: Wukong is that the game is a Soulslike, when it's, in fact, an action RPG with a few Soulslike-esque elements, but if you want a perfect entry point to the Soulslike genre after playing Black Myth: Wukong, then Lies of P might be the best opt

While players can always farm more Will and Blood of the Iron Bull from enemies, the ability to freely respec Cultivated Spirits — even if it only returns part of the investment — would be a valuable addition. It would encourage more experimentation with different Spirits and make this aspect of the Xbox game Releases more dynamic and engag

The Nvidia RTX 4070 Super tops most lists of best GPUs, but here the reason is based on more than just price to performance. Because Black Myth: Wukong has been developed using Unreal Engine 5, it tends to favor Nvidia GPUs more than AMD cards (especially with Ray Tracing turned on), and for that reason, the GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER GAMING OC 12G stands as the best GPU overall for Black Myth: Wukong. It will allow you to enjoy the game at a comfortable 60+ FPS at 2K resolution, which is a great place to be.

The last and best Transformation is acquired through a secret ending and by defeating the final boss in Black Myth Wukong , and therefore, it is as difficult to obtain as it is powerful. With the Azure Dome Transformation, you can turn into the Stone Monkey to gain many talents and features, such as Indestructible, Earthshatter Slam, and best of all, the Monkey Mind Spell, as detailed be

If you took a more linear approach to completing Chapter 2 of Black Myth: Wukong, then you will definitely remember having to take down Tiger Vanguard, but you will have likely missed the two other fights against tigers you can challenge in this chap

There are several optional boss encounters throughout your journey in Black Myth: Wukong, but one of the trickiest to find and then complete is the Yin Tiger, who you'll find in the back of the Ruyi Scroll realm. If you don't keep an eye out for Chen Loong when exploring Bitter Lake, then you'll never even know this area exi

Your journey in Black Myth: Wukong is long and unforgiving. As expected, the Bamboo Grove — the second region of Chapter 1 — is significantly more challenging and complex than its predecessor. Fear not, as the walkthrough below details everything you need to know about this area.

Black Myth: Wukong features excellent character progression, offering several distinct skill trees for staff stances, various spells and transformations, celestial medicine passive buffs, and more. What's even better is that each of these systems is highly flexible, allowing for unlimited respecs with little to no penalty whenever players want to try something new. However, for some reason, this flexibility doesn't extend to the Spirit Cultivation system. Once players upgrade certain Spirits (and there are many), they cannot reclaim the resources spent to invest in newer opti

At the start of your adventure, you'll be drip-fed a few different options for armour and weapon upgrades, but as you progress, the different array of options will be staggering. Some of these are only unlocked at the end of various obscure quest lines, so getting the achievements for getting all of the armour and weapons is a hefty challenge, and that's not even considering the material cost required for e

When you reach a fork in the path, take the left route to find the third Meditation Spot. Interact with it and open the golden box on the table. The box will reward you with a Celestial Taiyi Pill , which permanently increases your Mana . Now, take the previously ignored right path and continue along the linear route. Eventually, you will reach another Keeper’s Shrine. Congratulations, you have now completed the Bamboo Grove and are at the beginning of Black Wind Cave.

To unlock the secret ending, players will encounter a familiar boss in Black Myth: Wukong from the tutorial, Erlang, the Sacred Divinity, which consists of two phases , as well as the four Heavenly Kings.
