Black Myth: Wukong, an action game inspired by Dark Souls and rooted in Journey to the West along with Chinese mythology, is set to be released on August 20, 2024. This game, crafted by the Chinese studio Game Science, immerses players in a fantastical rendition of ancient China, pitting them against a host of colossal, mythical beasts.

The latest trailer showcases an array of these gigantic mythological adversaries. Highlights include an enormous bear with fists ablaze, a colossal spider, and a grand white dragon. The trailer also features several other mythical beings, some seemingly benevolent, such as a huge sea turtle carrying a tiny island on its shell. Additionally, the trailer teases brief glimpses of combat, showcasing remarkably swift and fluid action sequences.
