New Black Myth Wukong Trailer Skips Xbox Series X|S

Jun 07, 2024 9:26 PM

Black Myth: Wukong, the highly anticipated fantasy adventure game based on Journey to the West, will no longer release on Xbox Series X and S simultaneously with PS5 and PC on August 20, 2024. Developer Game Science confirmed the delay for Xbox users, stating optimization adjustments as the reason. The announcement follows the game's new trailer shown at the Summer Game Fest 2024, which omitted mention of the Xbox version. Game Science assures that the Xbox release date will be announced once it meets quality standards. Additionally, the studio has faced backlash over sexist comments made by its founders, sparking intense debates in the gaming community.

Why was the Xbox release of Black Myth: Wukong delayed?

The Xbox release of Black Myth: Wukong was delayed because the developer, Game Science, is still optimizing the game to meet their quality standards. They aim to minimize the wait for Xbox users and will announce a new release date once these standards are met.

Black Myth: Wukong is inspired by the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West, which follows the adventurous journey of the Monkey King. The game features action-packed combat, mythical creatures, and a rich storyline, making it one of the most awaited releases in the fantasy gaming genre.
