Game Update Overview

This patch addresses specific issues with the Gauntlet of Legends mode and the Journeyer’s Chart, improving overall gameplay.
Anticipation mounts for a busy 2025, with potential DLC expansions and an Xbox port on the horizon for Black Myth: Wukong.

Game Science, the studio behind Black Myth: Wukong, has rolled out a fresh update that is now available for download on both PC and PS5 platforms. After making a remarkable impact as one of 2024’s standout titles, this action-adventure game surprised many with its strong sales figures and favorable reviews, even earning a nomination for Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2024.

Since its launch, the developers have been diligent in providing updates that enhance the gaming experience. Among the most significant enhancements was December’s update, which introduced a Challenge mode, fresh gear, and the Journeyer’s Chart to the game. The new update, released in February 2025, shifts focus from adding new content to refining existing mechanics and addressing player concerns.

This recent update comes with notable fixes rather than new game modes, targeting glitches in the Gauntlet of Legends mode and resolving issues within the Journeyer’s Chart. Additionally, several PS5-specific improvements have been made, such as optimizations to the Quality Mode graphics and resolving a blur issue with distortion effects during Super Resolution gameplay. Although new content was not introduced this time, the adjustments promise to enhance the overall gameplay experience.

While players appreciate these quality-of-life updates, many are eager for new content. Speculation is rife that the forthcoming DLC for Black Myth: Wukong will include fresh areas and formidable bosses, though specifics remain undisclosed.

The year 2025 is shaping up to be a pivotal one for Black Myth: Wukong. Alongside the anticipated DLC, an Xbox port is also in the pipeline and expected to be released later this year. While an official release date for the Xbox version has yet to be disclosed, it is expected to incorporate all post-launch content already released for PC and PS5 platforms, ensuring a comprehensive gaming experience for new players.
