Wuchang: Fallen Feathers tells the story of Bai Wuchang, a warrior with no memory who is battling a mysterious illness known as Ornithropy. Sekiro ‘s protagonist, Wolf , is also prone to contracting an illness known as Dragonrot. However, while Ornithropy is slowly morphing Wuchang into a monster, on the flip side, it is also granting her access to immense power. The game is described as non-linear but stops short of calling itself an open-world game, so it’s likely it will adopt a similar semi-open-world structure that is used in both Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice , and the upcoming Black Myth: Wuko
The best compliment that can be paid after any hands-on preview is that it leaves you wanting more. Black Myth: Wukong did that in all the best ways. I wanted to see more of the evocative world that lay ahead, improve my skills and challenge some of the optional bosses I saw but quickly trounced me, and to experience how the combat evolves over time. Just this small taste was enough to prove that the initial promise of Black Myth: Wukong – a beautiful game with impressive combat – was not a trick. This is the real deal and it’s easily one of my most anticipated games releasing in the latter part of 20
Instead, a copy of the physical edition will have a download voucher inside the box, which players can then redeem online for the full game. That goes for both the standard “Deluxe Edition,” and the recently revealed “Collector’s Edition.” In other words, the physical edition is nothing more than a glorified drink coaster.
In a surprising move, Microsoft has provided an official response regarding the recent delay of Black Myth: Wukong on Xbox Series X/S. Although the statement itself doesn’t provide explicit answers to any lingering questions about Black Myth: Wukong ‘s postponed release on the platform, a report from a trusted insider suggests that there could be more to this situation than initially belie
If this is true, this would run contrary to Game Science’s own statements about optimization issues with the title’s Xbox version and gamers’ assertions about this being a problem with the Xbox Series S. After all, a few developers have claimed in the past that the Xbox Series S is holding games back , so some are presuming that Black Myth: Wukong ‘s Xbox port is struggling to run on the underpowered console. Ultimately, though, there isn’t enough evidence to suggest that any of these theories about Black Myth: Wukong ‘s delay on Xbox platforms are 100% correct, so it’s best to take all of these assertions with a grain of s

With how immensely powerful Sun Wukong is — at least, with how powerful he is according to Journey to the West — it might be difficult for Black Myth: Wukong to be a traditional Soulslike. Based on what has been revealed so far, Wukong will be facing some massive foes, so it’s likely he could meet his match. However, considering what has been written about him, it might be a challenge to make him insignificant in any world. That’s actually a good thing, as it would be a shame to play as a legendary warrior such as Wukong and for his supernatural abilities to feel underwhelming against enemies. Instead, Black Myth: Wukong should lean as heavily into Wukong’s overpowered nature as possible, still providing a decent challenge, but simultaneously allowing players to feel more powerful than anything else in the wo
WIth that said, it would be remiss to discuss Black Myth: Wukong without mentioning that its studio, Game Science, has been accused of fostering a sexist work environment . Yang Qi, the studio’s co-founder, Blackmythwukongfans.com once wrote a lengthy sexist post that touched on the biological differences between men and women as it pertains to games . To our knowledge, the studio has not responded to these accusations.
In a statement provided to Windows Central , a Microsoft representative provided some official comments about Black Myth Wukong ‘s delay on Xbox consoles. Stating that the company is “excited for the launch” of the upcoming Xbox game , the spokesperson said that the console manufacturer is “working with Game Science to bring the game” to Xbox platforms. “We can’t comment on the deals made by our partners with other platform holders,” said Microsoft, “but we remain focused on making Xbox the best platform for gamers, and great games are at the center of th
Black Myth: Wukong ‘s main differentiator appears to be the sheer power of its protagonist, the Monkey King, and his unique suite of abilities, including being able to morph into various other forms. This, along with some of the weapon skills that have already been displayed, appears to give Black Myth a unique identity among the other Soulslikes. On the surface, Wuchang: Fallen Feathers appears to have much more in common with Sekiro , which, if executed correctly, shouldn’t harm its chances of success at
