Today, many websites published their reviews of Black Myth: Wukong. On Metacritic, the game has a decent rating of 82 out of 100.

Reviewers have praised Black Myth: Wukong primarily for its engaging gameplay, dynamic combat system based on dodging, and a large number of diverse, daring, and epic bosses. According to journalists, the game is sure to appeal to those who are primarily interested in participating in spectacular battles with unique and original opponents.

One of the main criticisms from reviewers is the level design. Some locations are difficult to navigate, which doesn't enhance the experience but rather frustrates players. Additionally, the game has issues with enemy variety, making some fights feel repetitive.

Almost all journalists noted that Black Myth: Wukong has optimization issues, though they aren't critical. Frame rate drops occur even on powerful PCs with graphics cards like the GeForce RTX 4080 or RTX 4090, reviewers warned. Players should be prepared to lower graphical settings for a smoother experience.

It is worth mentioning that reviewers only published reviews for the PC version of the game. The publisher did not provide keys for testing the action game on the PS5, so it is currently unknown how the game performs and is optimized on that console. Reviews for the console version will be released after the game launches.

Black Myth: Wukong is set to release on August 20 on PC and PS5. The action RPG, inspired by Chinese mythology, tells the story of the Chosen One, who must undergo a series of trials and uncover the mystery behind a great legend. The game is based on the classic novel Journey to the West.
