Reflecting on the gaming landscape, 2022 emerged as a significant turning point, largely due to the phenomenal success of Elden Ring, a game that captured the hearts of players and clinched the coveted title of Game of the Year.
This accomplishment rippled through the industry, leaving a lasting impact on numerous other game developers. In its wake, a slew of announcements followed suit, ranging from titles like Lies of P, and Lords of the Fallen, to the resurgence of the Armored Core franchise, masterminded by the same creative genius behind Elden Ring. Each of these offerings strives to carve its niche by introducing distinct worlds and innovative gameplay mechanics.
In this exhilarating landscape of gaming innovation, another remarkable contender is emerging, a game that shares thematic ties with the renowned Souls series. Step forward to "Black Myth: Wukong," a title that has tantalized gamers since its first appearance back in 2020, and is now beginning to unveil its full splendour.
