The first thing you need to know is the release date. This is scheduled for August 20, 2024. At that time it will be available for PlayStation 5 and PC. Its Xbox Series X/S version was delayed to give it more development time. However, its creators assured that they will release it.
What is Black Myth: Wukong about?
Black Myth: Wukong is an action video game created by the Game Science studio. Its story was inspired by the Chinese novel Journey to the West. That’s why our protagonist is inspired by the monkey king Sun Wukong, who will set off on a mystical journey after revealing that he is ‘the chosen one’.
Due to this inspiration, the enemies will be demons and supernatural beings taken from Chinese folklore. We don’t yet know how closely it will follow the events of the novel and whether we’ll get to see any allies for the Monkey King taken straight from the print media.
What is its gameplay like?
As its release date approaches, more videos began to appear about it. Black Myth: Wukong that reveal their gameplay. This one feels quite active and with elements borrowed from soulslike. We must fight the enemies while taking care not to run out of energy.

Is Black Myth: Wukong coming to PlayStation 4?

This It could be due to the graphical power that the game has and its graphics engine, Unreal Engine 5..
