Black Myth: Wukong _ 's story can be confusing right up to the very end. It's a reimagined version of the 16th-century Chinese novel _Journey to the West , which follows a ragtag group of misfits who escort the monk Tan Sanzang to the Buddhist heartlands in order to retrieve a series of sacred texts. Black Myth: Wukong picks up long after simian protagonist Sun Wukong has completed his journey and become a Buddha. He rejects his newfound status and returns to the mountain of his birth. Sun Wukong duels the god Erlang, who would force his return to the Celestial Court, and is once again sealed in a stone as punishm

Not only does this increase your resistance to fire , but it will also remove the fire debuff that Guangzhi's weapon is excellent at applying. They don't cost that much Will to purchase, but just be aware that you'll only be able to buy six of them .

In Black Myth: Wukong , players control one of his monkey subjects, known as the Destined One and charged with recovering Wukong's lost Relics, which are spread throughout the world. After finding five of the six, and also tracking down Wukong's arms and armor, the Destined One returns to their home of Mount Huaguo to discover the sixth and final Relic and meet their destiny. **There are two endings to Black Sun: Wukong ** , both of which depend entirely on whether the player completes an optional boss fight, and each of which has great implications for the game's mytho-historical sett

The crafting system in _Black Myth: Wukong _ is typical for a Triple-A RPG, so having plenty of the rarer but "basic" materials, like silk, will allow you to craft new armor as the situation needs. Each armor set provides unique buffs , and equipping full sets will even give an additional, or stronger, effect when you wear all the pieces. Typically, these buffs apply to the area or fight you're about to en

It's also worth keeping in mind that you have an extremely powerful tool in Immobilize . It's given to you right at the start of the game and will be your best friend throughout, so make sure to use it as often as you can against Guangzhi , preferably just after he's finished a long attacking combo. With all this in mind, you should have Guangzhi looking like a puppy pretty soon.

One of the most useful features in Black Myth: Wukong is Spirits, which can be obtained shortly into the game's first chapter. Spirits can be acquired by defeating mini-bosses or more hearty versions of Lesser Yaoguais and can then be equipped and used in combat. Each Spirit has a passive Equipped Effect that can provide some much-needed buffs, but Spirits can also be used to deal direct damage to enemies or stagger them. There are dozens of Spirits to find in Black Myth: Wukong , but one Spirit arguably bests the rest in terms of its damage and Equipped Eff

The Old Monkey explains that this is the shell of Sun Wukong, and that the Destined One will need to defeat his body and inherit his soul in order to become his successor, after which the journey will begin anew. The implication here seems to be that, in the world of Black Myth: Wukong , there is no one Monkey King, and Sun Wukong is repeatedly killed and reincarnated by his successors . The entirety of Journey to the West and Black Sun: Wukong seem to repeat themselves in a kind of time loop. The Destined One will become the new Sun Wukong, rule over the monkeys of Mount Huaguo, and eventually die so another Destined One can take o

For those who are still unsure, **Black Myth: Wukong offers a benchmark tool that allows them to determine which settings are best for their individual system's specs ** . The Wukong benchmark is available for free via Steam , and tests a PC's capability by rendering a scene from the game and evaluating its performance.

Many of Black Myth: Wukong 's Yaoguai Chiefs are the game's mini-bosses, so they put up much more of a fight than Lesser Yaoguais. Others may appear in the game but don't technically serve as a boss fight, like the Feng-Tail General. Furthermore, not all of Black Myth: Wukong 's Yaoguai Chiefs are mentioned in Journey to the West , like the Flint Chief and Commander Beetle, and are instead products of Game Science's approach to Eastern mythology. The following make up the majority of Black Myth: Wukong 's 55 Yaoguai Chi
