Nowadays, most people may know Journey to the West for inspiring the Dragon Ball series. Its main hero even uses Wukong’s Japanese name, Son Goku. That said, most Dragon Ball fans outside Japan got into the series with the explosive sagas of Dragon Ball Z , where the Journey to the West influences got turned down and other influences, like Superman , got turned

It's a clever twist to switch out the ancient Buddhist texts with human beings, but that's not the only similarity. The character of Mushra, one of the three figures that guards and guides the main character, isn't a monkey, but retains the features of a staff as a weapon and the distinctive golden headb

Another issue that hampers exploration in Black Myth: Wukong is the abundance of invisible walls , which break immersion and make navigating the game world even more difficult without a map. Frequently, players find themselves unable to progress despite the environment appearing passable. Conversely, some players might dismiss certain pathways, assuming they lead nowhere, only to miss out on hidden treasure chests or secret areas. This inconsistency makes exploration in Black Myth: Wukong occasionally feel lackluster, leading players to wonder how much better the experience could have b

The Golden Armor Pieces are part of the Gilded Radiance legendary set, and are some of the strongest in the game, especially for those who enjoy using Spirit skills. Boasting high defense stats, wearing half the Armor Pieces provides you with a 2-Piece Effect, which increases your Attack for a short duration, after performing a Spirit Skill, or using a Vess

It has inspired a wide range of media, from books, shows, and movies to comics and video games — though some games are closer to the legend than others. Whether they let players control Wukong and co. themselves, or pit them against Sanzang’s guardians, these are the best games inspired by Journey to the We

With half the set outfitted, players gain considerable Damage Reduction for a short time, upon De-Transformation and exiting their Spirit state . With the Greaves' Unique Effect, doing so also negates the cost of Stamina of all actions for a brief moment to fol

He gains a new melee combo in this phase too, where he raises his hand glowing with light, before punching down into the ground and then slamming his staff down on the same spot. This is an easy one to dodge due to the wind-up, so just keep an eye on him and roll to either side as he performs each slam. He can also perform a staff swing before swinging a glowing hand upward, conjuring a line of spikes similar to the ones produced by his slam attacks. Dodge towards and around him so he isn't facing you when he summons the spikes.

Unlike many action-RPGs or soulslikes, Black Myth: Wukong features no map at all, leaving players to explore its vast areas entirely on their own. While it's clear that the developers aimed to encourage a sense of exploration without players relying on an artificial mini-map, this approach is a double-edged sword due to the game's level design. Early areas might feel relatively easy to navigate due to their streamlined nature, but by Chapter 2 — and especially in Chapter 3 — levels become far more expansive and layered, with numerous interconnected pathways and verticality. What makes this even more challenging is that Black Myth: Wukong 's environments tend to blend together, lacking distinct landmarks to aid in navigat

The Warriors Orochi series are basically Dynasty Warriors Vs Samurai Warriors , with some Sino-Japanese history and mythology thrown in. Sun Wukong turned up in Warriors Orochi 2 as a playable bad guy since the main villain, Taira Kiyomori, freed him from serving Sanzang and Nezha. Sanzang turned up in the PSP update, though it took Warriors Orochi 3 and its Ultimate update to go dee

Another Armor set acquirable in Chapter 2, is the Ochre Armor, forming the Raging Sandstorm set. This is a great piece with elemental defenses, providing Chill Resistance, which will serve you well in the snowy New West of Chapter 3. For players who enjoy using Spells, particularly Cloud Step and Pluck of Many , (the latter given to you by the Headless Monk in Black Myth Wukong Xbox Myth: Wukong ), this set is the best p

Armor sets in **Black Myth: Wukong ** are more than just pieces that provide you with defense and durability in combat. The best sets in the game will also provide you with various skill boosts and abilities that can enhance particular attributes used in combat. Many of these sets will allow you to improve your abilities with your Spells, Resistance, and performing certain Dodges and Attacks, among other featu

The Yellow Wind Sage's most frustrating attack during this phase begins with him running at you and performing a quick kick. If you don't dodge the kick he'll launch you into the air and begin a lengthy and unavoidable combo attack that will usually drain most of your health , if not all of it. Watch for him dashing at you to perform the kick and get out of the way by any means necessary since this attack is a grab and ignores invincibility effects like Rock Solid and Resolute Counterflow .
