Domestic 3A New Hope: Can Black Myth Wukong Carry the Flag of Westward Journey?
On August 20, 2020, a game demo video called "Black Myth: Wukong" was born, which instantly detonated the domestic game circle with its exquisite graphics, smooth movements and Chinese-style scene design. Today, "Black Myth Wukong" is not just a game, but also carries the expectations of countless players for domestic 3A games. According to the data, the global pre-sale of "Black Myth: Wukong" has exceeded 400 million yuan, which is very impressive for domestic new works.
Reshape the classics of Journey to the West and create an oriental fantasy epic
"Black Myth: Wukong" is based on the classic Chinese novel "Journey to the West", but it is not a simple replica, but a bold adaptation and re-creation. The game is set in an oriental magical world that is both real and fantasy. Players will play a "Destiny Man" and embark on a westward road full of unknowns and challenges to explore the buried truth.
The graphics of the game were exquisite. Whether it was the majestic Heaven Palace or the eerie Netherworld, they all showed a very high level of art. The monster designs in the game were even more original.
Fist to meat fighting experience, feel the blood and pride between sticks
As an action role-playing game, the combat system of "Black Myth: Wukong" is naturally a top priority. The game adopts a third-person perspective, and players can use sticks for close-range combat or cast spells for long-range attacks. The combat action is smooth and natural, and the sense of attack is full, perfectly restoring the essence of Chinese kung fu.
In addition to the basic attack methods, the game also added a "change" system, allowing players to transform into different forms, such as giant apes, stone statues, etc. Each form has unique skills and combat methods, which greatly enriches the game's combat strategy.
Break the traditional narrative model and explore the love and hate behind the characters
"Black Myth: Wukong" has also made great efforts in the plot. The game is no longer limited to the traditional "monster fighting and leveling" mode, but pays more attention to the characterization of characters and the expression of emotions. Players not only have to face various powerful enemies in the game, but also interact with various NPCs, understand their stories, and feel their joys and sorrows.
Each character in the game has a distinct personality and unique background stories, such as a seemingly vicious monster, which may hide an unknown and bitter past. The developers hope that in this way, players can have a deeper understanding of the story of Journey to the West and provoke players to think about human nature, destiny and other issues.
The future of domestic 3A? Can "Black Myth: Wukong" live up to expectations?
"Black Myth: Wukong" has attracted much attention since its release, but it is also under tremendous pressure. After all, in the field of domestic 3A games, there are very few successful cases. So, can "Black Myth: Wukong" break the curse and carry the banner of domestic 3A?
Judging from the information currently known, "Black Myth: Wukong" has shown extremely high quality in terms of graphics, combat, plot, etc. Coupled with the blessing of the classic IP "Journey to the West", I believe that the final quality of the game will not disappoint.
Of course, the success of a game ultimately depends on the recognition of the market and players. According to the data, the global pre-sale of "Black Myth: Goku" has exceeded 400 million yuan, which is already very impressive for domestic new works. According to industry estimates, "Black Myth: Goku" will sell at least 3 million copies to make a return, but players and the industry are very optimistic about it. We look forward to "Black Myth: Goku" after the official release on August 20, 2024, to achieve excellent results, injecting new vitality into the development of domestic games.
