Black Myth: Wukong, developed by Game Science and inspired by the classic Chinese novel 'Journey to the West,' has shattered records with its launch, peaking at 2.2 million concurrent players on Steam, the highest for any single-player game ever. Initially criticized for its publisher's censorship and controversial creator review policies, the game nonetheless achieved overwhelming positive feedback, with 97% of over 180,000 reviews being favorable. The title's success is attributed to its high-quality gameplay, unique narrative, and significant anticipation as China's first true AAA game, marking a pivotal moment for Chinese game developers. Despite some technical issues reported with Intel's 13th- and 14th-gen CPUs, the game has continued to thrive across multiple platforms, including PlayStation 5 and Epic Games Store, with an Xbox release forthcoming. Analysts predict the game could sell up to 10 million copies, a milestone for Chinese-developed titles.
