Black Myth: Wukong review

It wasn’t until I learned to let go and allow Black Myth: Wukong to guide me at its own pace that I clicked with the game. After a bombastic opening, I was eager to experience a narrative and mechanical buildup back to the level that the intro sequence promised. While it eventually did, Black Myth: Wukong takes its time in revealing all its cards. That pace can be frustrating early on but is offset by an impressive level of graphical detail and enemy variety. Where the game undoubtedly falls short is in its storytelling and world-building, which is criminally hidden away where most will never access it.
