The story might seem weird to us Westerners, but it's actually the coolest thing ever. It's a myth, so don't take it literally. The Chinese monkey travelling West towards India symbolizes the spiritual journey of all sentient beings. It's a journey towards Enlightenment, man. The monsters and boss battles represent the poisons of the mind (attachments and negative emotions) that we all have to overcome in order to not be douchebags in our lives. Most of us fail this quest IRL, but we can still enjoy a well crafted adventure like Wukong. If you like Buddhism, you will love Wukong for how it turns deep philosophical concepts into artistic, visually stunning set pieces and boss battles. If you couldn't care less about Buddhism, you can still enjoy the game as a great action adventure in a cool fantasy world.

A game that is way ahead in combat mechanics and animations Though I had completed the game way back, after having got into the hype train back at the end of 2024, I could not find the time to write down a review of the game despite having enjoyed it greatly. As I remember, playing Black Myth Wukong felt great - to witness the never before seen superior combat animations together with great graphics, while also keeping one eye on the GPU temperature. Going into the game it felt like stepping into Chinese mythology - one created by the sheer hype the game brought back then and to be honest, the game's atmosphere and gameplay does not disappoint and still stands tall even today. From the fog-covered mountains, twisted forests and ancient temples it was clear this game was crafted with care - especially the gameplay part of it. Coming to the story - the storytelling, however, is more abstract. The game avoids traditional exposition or lengthy cutscenes. Instead, it communicates through silence, imagery, the atmosphere of each encounter, all explained in a journal or in one immaculate video presentation at the end of each chapter. The game trusts you to piece things together. While this approach adds mystery, it also leaves many narrative elements underexplained, especially for those unfamiliar with Journey to the West. The lore is rich - but only if you're willing to dig for it. Though the game lacked proper narrative presentation, the focus was more on the gameplay here. What stands out most is the combat. It’s not just good — it’s exceptional. Fast, fluid and full of depth, with transformation mechanics that make each encounter feel unique and personal. You can play in whatever combination of stance or transformation that pleases you. Boss fights are the heart of the game, and they are designed to test your reflexes and adaptability. Many are cinematic and unforgettable, and there’s a real sense of accomplishment when you bring one down. Black Myth doesn’t just challenge your skills - it respects them and makes you strive for perfection. The game also delivers in sound design. The traditional Chinese music, blended with modern orchestration, sets the mood perfectly - whether you're exploring a quiet shrine or locked in an epic battle with celestial beings. The ambient sounds, voice acting and especially the score in the final act are simply phenomenal. PERSONAL REFLECTION The final section of the game was easily my favorite - visually stunning, emotionally intense, and featuring some of the best boss fights in the game, including battles against heavenly gods. The music during these moments elevated everything. Honestly, I wish the entire game had matched the brilliance of that final stretch. Still, what Black Myth: Wukong does best i.e., combat - it does incredibly well. As a boss-centric action RPG, it delivers where it matters most. If it had offered stronger narrative clarity from the start, it could have easily entered “modern classic” territory. But even with its storytelling flaws, it remains an unforgettable journey — and one of the most mechanically impressive games I’ve played in years. Rating: 9/10

As an older gamer I had an aversion to 'souls-like' games because the old eye/hand co-ordination slows but I was an avid Journey to the West reader and even bigger watcher of the Monkey T.V. show and I really wanted to try it. It can be challenging but not impossible to beat if, like me, you're almost 60 yrs old. It really is fun and satisfying when you finally beat that boss giving you trouble.

Honestly didn’t expect much from this. Thought it was just another flashy Soulslike that looks good in trailers and plays mid. But man… I was wrong. A few hours in and I’m completely hooked. The combat is super tight, the atmosphere pulls you in, and the boss fights? Absolute bangers. I’ve played Elden Ring, God of War, all that and this holds up. Maybe even better in some ways. You can tell the devs poured everything into it. The way they showcase their mythology, the world-building, the details… it’s not just a game, it’s a love letter to their culture. As I said , didn’t expect much, but it ended up being something special. You can feel the heart behind it.
