True Soulslike or not, Black Myth: Wukong is highly anticipated by fans of the genre, as well as classic action-adventure fans. Developed by Game Science, Black Myth: Wukong puts players in control of the Destined One, who is based on the "Monkey King" Sun Wukong from the 16th-century Chinese novel Journey to the West. Sun Wukong is known for his supernatural powers, including the ability to shapeshift into other animals and objects. Black Myth: Wukong's Destined One can shapeshift just like The Monkey King, ultimately granting him a fighting chance in each of the game's boss fights.
