While the Destined One is an original character created specifically for Black Myth: Wukong , many of the game's other major characters are almost explicit copies of those from Journey to the West . As the game's story takes place five centuries after the events of the novel, these characters help maintain the game's connection to its "past" and, in turn, give substance to its present. The major boss of Black Myth: Wukong 's first chapter, for instance, is the Black Wind King, who is based on the Black Wind Demon from Journey to the West . Both the Black Wind King and the Black Wind Demon wield a Black Tassel Spear, can transform into a ferocious black bear, and serve as the guardian of Black Wind Mountain. The Black Wind King is also the first character to confirm Black Myth: Wukong 's place in Journey to the West 's timeline when he mentions it has been 500 years since his last encounter with Sun Wuk
Black Myth: Wukong also appears to be a deeply cinematic experience, with its gorgeous visuals and dynamic cutscenes helping to tell its vast and epic story. This is certainly going to be a more story-heavy experience than the typical soulslike, although prior to launch, developer Game Science has revealed few details about what players can actually expect from it. Regardless, players are anticipating a truly bombastic and explosive experience when playing **Black Myth: Wukong
The game also features many of the same locations from Journey to the West , though they have been meticulously crafted from the ground up to provide plenty of room for exploration and Black Myth: Wukong 's countless bosses . Journey to the West locations like Black Wind Mountain, Yellow Wind Ridge, the Flaming Mountains, and Mount Huaguo are all explorable locations in Black Myth: Wukong . However, they have been designed to reflect time-driven change and their current role in a brand-new story centuries ahead of the novel. This helps Black Myth: Wukong to set itself apart from Journey to the West as a standalone experie
According to a statement to Windows Central , Microsoft is " working with Game Science to bring the game to [Xbox Series X/S]. " However, no further statement has been made, nor has either Microsoft or Game Science given a clear timeline of when fans can expect Black Myth: Wukong on Xbox. Black Myth: Wukong is also available for pre-order right now on both Steam and the PlayStation Store . Players eager to have it ready for launch can buy it and preload it at a later date.

Journey to the West is a pantheon of celestial beings, deities, and mythological creatures known as Yaoguai, and Black Myth: Wukong is perhaps even more so with its inclusion of Yaoguai not found in the novel. The Destined One encounters dozens of "lesser" Yaoguai in Black Myth: Wukong that we haven't see in Journey to the West , including the Croaky, the Crow Diviner, the Tenner, and the Pitstone, Poisestone, and Palestone. Some of Black Myth: Wukong 's bosses we also have not seen in Journey to the West , though almost every major boss

One of Black Myth: Wukong 's most complex and developed characters is Bajie, a major character in Journey to the West who now fills the role of partner, mentor, and guide to the Destined One throughout most of the game's story. In the novel, Bajie is characterized by his laziness to some degree, but his respectful and soft-hearted side is often revealed in his love for Sun Wukong, whom he affectionately refers to as "brother." His relationship is best defined as warm, and it's easy for readers to endear themselves to him as a result. In Black Myth: Wukong , on the other hand, Bajie's most prominent characteristics are his arrogance and recklessness. However, his unbridled commitment to the game's protagonist often exposes the same tenderness of the character he is based on, as he can't help but see his old friend when he looks at the Destined One. The unifying element among these takes on Bajie is how likeabe he truly
