Black Myth: Wukong Looks Amazing, But Its Graphics Have A Major Problem

After a brief cutscene, you'll transform into a Golden Cicada. Use this form to bypass enemies and continue forward until you encounter a turquoise-colored boss. Don’t fight it yet; instead, take the left path until you reach a Torii Gate. If you have trouble finding it, transform it back to your normal form and explore the area until you do.

Still, comparing Black Myth: Wukong to two of the biggest titles ever made (in terms of world size and how long they take to beat) isn't the fairest comparison, especially because it is considerably more efficient than other titles over 100GB in size . For instance, Call of Duty: Warzones is terribly inefficient with its file size, considering that it is 125GB on Steam. EA Sports FC 25 is another title that asks too much for its file size, coming in at 100GB when the title used to be 50GB in 2

trackmania-xbox.jpgUnlike 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

Black Myth: Wukong is anambitious project, widely regarded as the first AAA video game from China — and rightly so. While the game may not offer in-depth exploration or a vast array of weapons like Elden Ring , it does feature a ridiculous number of boss battles. These encounters include hidden, optional, and mandatory fights, adding to the challenge and excitement.

It is a rare thing when a gameends up looking as good as the initial trailers promised, but Black Myth: Wukong _ **** _ has delivered where many games have not. The graphical fidelity and visuals of the title cannot be overstated, and the scale of its intro alone shows players the kind of work and detail that went into the title, presenting Wukong as the divinely powerful being that he is in the Journey to the West novel. It's all impressive work, but this level of graphical fidelity and scale comes at a c

Dodging forward at the correct time will avoid this attack, but be wary of the delay. Another way to perfectly avoid this Blood Magic attack patterns is to immobilize the boss during the animation, allowing you to dish out decent damage.

The general strategy for this boss fight is to stay in mid-range of the boss, get your attacks in, and run away. Most of his stronger attacks have a very short range. If you get hit, attack the pilgrims nearby to heal your health. Watch out for the Ground Burst attack , as you wouldn’t want to get caught in an area where you can’t back off to escape the attack’s range.

After meditating, turn around and follow the path through the rocks. You'll soon encounter another Keeper’s Shrine. Be sure to interact with it and rest to replenish your health, mana, and healing resource, the Gourd .

Thankfully, the PS5 version of the game is a little smaller, requiring 104GB , but having a file size larger than 100GB poses a problem for players since the standard PS5 has 825GB of SSD storage, meaning that Black Myth: Wukong takes up practically an eighth of the console's storage alone. This could well be worth the sacrifice for those who love hack-and-slash action games and Journey to the West , but it could mean that some players will have to fork out extra cash for more stor

Many gaming PCs tend to come with 1TB SSD drives now , but for those with the cash to burn, commercially, these can go up to 4TB. Looking at the more standard 1TB, if players already have games installed that are relatively the same size as Black Myth: Wukong and want to play the game, that is well over a tenth of their SSD's space that they need to sacrifice, and other games will likely need to be uninstalled. Not to mention that those without fast internet will be waiting for hours on end just to download and install the ti
