Best of all, Rise of the Ronin features three difficulty modes that you can play on, as well as the opportunity to play co-op with up to three friends. Only downside to note: this game is a PS5 exclusive, so it can only be played on that console.

From Chapter One's Black Wind Mountain, you'll have amassed a bunch of helpful Spirits . While the Wandering Wight is powerful, and we all love him, we recommend switching to Guangmou and his snakes for this fight. The Earth Wolf is susceptible to the Poison Bane , making this Spirit particularly effective.

In God of War , you play as Kratos, but unlike the games that came before it in this series, you are no longer the God of War that waged war on Olympus. Set approximately 150 years after 2010's God of War III, Kratos is now a mortal man living in ancient Scandinavia with his son Atreus. As Kratos, you must now fight for both survival and to protect your son.

The Mad Tiger is a large, aggressive beast that uses fast melee combat and employs several AOE attacks. Despite its aggressive approach to combat, the Mad Tiger is not a very challenging boss to defeat. However, if you find yourself struggling against this boss, the following tips should come in handy:

Fans of games like Sekiro might prefer this straightforward experience, while anyone who leans on magic in action RPGs may not see the appeal. Using the Spell Binder won't be for everyone, but for the right player, it could be the one Black Myth: Wukong spell worth hav

If you've left the boss arena without collecting the Earth Wolf's Spirit and don't find it upon your return, then don't worry. You simply need to rest at a Keeper's Shrine , where you'll find the option to retrieve its Spirit .

In Chapter Two of Black Myth: Wukong , the Destined One finds themselves in Sandgate Village. However, navigating this desert area is frustratingly difficult, not just because of the archers but also due to the many bosses surrounding the area's first Keeper's Shrine.

One of these is the Earth Wolf, and while an optional miniboss, defeating it is necessary to gain its Spirit. Whether it's an oversized rat or a wolf is hard to tell, but that's the least of your worries, as the Earth Wolf has a few tricks up its sleeve. However, you've also got some neat tricks from Chapter One that will help you one up on it.

By planning a combat strategy and equipping yourself with effective items and gear, including strong Spells, Medicines, Transformations and more, you will be sure to see victory and advance to Chapter 3 with an array of useful rewards in your poc

Transformations and Spirits in Black Myth: Wukong work in similar ways, allowing you to take the form of an enemy or boss you have defeated and temporarily use their abilities. The main difference between them is that Transformations provide you with an alternative Health and Stamina bar , which when depleted, returns you to your original st

Once you’re inside the village, look for an exit in the bordering walls to find yourself in yet another gray, misty area. Using the Old Rattle-Drum here results in the appearance of a child that invites the Destined One to jump into the well to meet an old friend — the friend, of course, is the Mad Tiger .

Like many Spirits, the Earth Wolf's Spirit has both an active and passive ability. Equipping it increases your Focus buildup with each attack, while its Wild Rapture skill lets you take its form, charging recklessly at enemies and staggering them in the process.

As for the Earth Wolf's attacks , most are relatively straightforward to dodge as they have a long wind up. Your only concern, however, should be the grab attack , as it can cause a lot of hurt to the Destined One.

When Immobilize wears off, activate your Cloud Step spell to strike the Earth Wolf with a powerful hit, then summon Guangmou's snakes to inflict the Poison Bane . Immediately, follow this up by transforming into Guangzhi for a powerful burst of fire damage while applying the Burn Bane simultaneously.

In theory, Ring of Fire should be a useful spell to employ in Black Myth: Wukong. Ring of Fire creates a flaming circle around the Destined One that offers several perks and increases the effect of medicines , which sounds like an effective reprieve in intense boss fights. Upgrading the spell makes it possible to recover health and eventually extend the Ring of Fire effects even after stepping out of the ring, reducing the likelihood of completely wasting the spell in an aggressive encoun

Playing Odyssey feels like stepping foot into Ancient Greece, from visiting locations like the Agora of Athena and the statue of Zeus at Olympia, and facing off against creatures from Greek mythology like Medusa, the Sphinx and the Minotaur. The game also offers two DLCs, Legacy of the First phantom blade zero and The Fate of Atlantis, which further expand on Greece's history and folklore.

Incorporate Spells : The Immobilize spell should help you overcome situations where you’re not in a position to dodge through the boss’s attacks , or unsure of when a combo might end. Immobilizing the Mad Tiger will also allow you to land some powerful combos, resulting in a potential stagger.
