Black Myth: Wukong, one of the most eagerly anticipated games in recent years, is expected to revolutionize both gameplay and graphics since its announcement. The review embargo for the game will lift on August 16, 2024, just four days before the game’s launch. This means we’ll soon find out critics’ thoughts on the game’s Western Journey adventure.
Countdown to Black Myth: Wukong
Preloading on the PlayStation Store will begin on August 18, 2024. Those who pre-order the digital copy will be able to download the game with the latest updates. Additionally, a day-one patch is expected to be released on the game’s launch day, August 20, 2024.
There were some rumors about performance concerns with the PS5 version, but journalist ignusthewise, who had the opportunity to try the game at Gamescom and Hangzhou, confirmed that these concerns are unfounded. The PS5 version is highly optimized, and the developer kits were also available at these events.

- August 16: Reviews will be available.
- August 18: Preloading begins.
