Mythology is a rich source of inspiration for video games. Everything from\u00a0Immortals: Fenyx Rising<\/em>, to\u00a0Raji: An Ancient Epic<\/em>, to\u00a0God of War,<\/em> has shown<\/a> the power of recapturing ancient mythos in a playable form. Chinese history and legend have been captured by games like\u00a0Dynasty Warriors<\/em> before, but now\u00a0Black Myth: Wukong<\/em><\/strong> is on the way to tell another story. It’s based on\u00a0Journey to the West,\u00a0<\/em>an epic that tells the story of Sun Wukong, the Monkey King. Sun Wukong’s story is filled with magic, extraordinary creatures, and action, so it’s a great choice for a game adaptation.<\/p>\n

Sun Wukong has inspired all kinds of media, and that shows in his upcoming game. It looks a lot like\u00a0Black Myth: Wukong<\/em><\/a> is taking notes from\u00a0Shadow of the Colossus,\u00a0<\/em>considering the scale of some of the game’s enemies. What’s more, it’s probably got a lot of the same spirit as\u00a0Dragon Ball Z\u00a0<\/em>and some of its video game adaptations. After all,\u00a0Dragon\u00a0<\/em>Ball<\/em> is based largely on\u00a0Journey to the West.<\/em> Fans of either of these franchises should probably keep an eye on\u00a0Black Myth: Wukong.\u00a0<\/em>It’ll probably scratch the same itch as those titles, but with stunning graphics and an ancient fantasy angle.<\/p>\n

Goku’s adventures in\u00a0Dragon Ball Z\u00a0<\/em>clearly have a lot in common with\u00a0Journey to the West<\/em> if players look at it closely. Over the course of the franchise, Goku constantly has to train to get stronger, take on godlike opponents, and even frequently cheats death.<\/p>\n

Sun Wukong’s journey frequently involves the concept of immortality, and he’s always growing stronger as a warrior himself, partially by fighting supernatural beings.\u00a0If the story threads weren’t sufficient references, Saiyans are also well known for their monkey tails and the towering ape form they sometimes transform into.\u00a0Dragon Ball\u00a0<\/em>lovers may not have had the chance to read\u00a0Journey of the West,<\/em> but\u00a0Black Myth: Wukong<\/em> looks like an exciting retelling<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As for\u00a0Shadow of the Colossus,\u00a0<\/em>the most recent\u00a0Black Myth<\/em> trailer<\/a> makes it obvious that boss battles will be no modest affair. It shows off a huge, hairy, and monstrous warrior many times Wukong’s size. Players will surely have to master all kinds of magic and fighting techniques to take on these towering bosses despite the size discrepancy. The game has the chance to channel the same incredible satisfaction of overcoming insurmountable odds that\u00a0Shadow of the Colossus<\/em> is known for. Players will have to prove size doesn’t mean everything.<\/p>\n

There’s a distinct chance that Wukong will learn a\u00a0Dragon Ball<\/em>-esque technique<\/a> where he becomes huge in size, on the scale of the bosses teased for\u00a0Black Myth: Wukong.<\/em> That might mean late-game boss battles play very differently from early encounters, which sounds like a great way to give players a sense of progression. Earlier in the game, odds are gameplay will be much more like\u00a0Shadow of the Colossus.<\/em> Players will reply more on Wukong’s shapeshifting, his magic staff, and other abilities to outmaneuver gigantic enemies and defeat them with skill rather than raw power.<\/p>\n

Black Myth: Wukong\u00a0<\/em>is a long ways away, unfortunately. Even so, it’s a good sign of just what next-gen technology is capable of, and it’s good to know there’s already blockbuster titles in development for later in the lives of current consoles. Anyone who loves\u00a0Dragon Ball<\/em> in all its many forms<\/a> and is full of nostalgia for\u00a0Shadow of the Colossus\u00a0<\/em>should keep an eye on this game. The new trailer might mean that there’s more information to come soon, even if the game is far from release. Hopefully the blend of themes in this game turns out as gripping as it looks.<\/p>\n

Black Myth: Wukong<\/em><\/strong> is scheduled to release in 2023 for PC and unspecified platforms.<\/p>\n
