The 45-minute demo offers three different boss fights and a relatively complete chapter experience. The chapter experience provided during the Hangzhou event is called Ziyun Mountain. The overall scene is somewhat reminiscent of the gameplay footage shown in the 2022 trailer. This is a relatively complete level experience, with various environments such as forests, villages, and temples. There are as many as four or five types of enemies waiting for the player along the way. Don’t underestimate these little soldiers, they also have the ability to give the protagonist a fatal blow with one blow.
This level has a semi-open map with multiple paths for players to explore. It includes a brief cutscene, an optional quest to gain the new shape-shifting ability, and a final boss encounter with the two-stage morphing Bloodmoon General. This Boss is so huge that the protagonist can only fight while standing at its feet. It possesses the ability to launch attacks in a large area, making dodging these attacks a challenge. In addition, in the second stage of transformation, the whole scene is covered by a blood moon, and the attack method has also undergone some changes.
Due to time constraints, this trial version does not include an upgrade system. However, it provides players with a set of skills and equipment that will be acquired mid-game in the final version. “Black Myth: Wukong” encourages players to combine physical and magic attacks. For example, attacking after freezing an enemy with a hold can deal more damage to an enemy in a safer manner. Additionally, the timing of a spell’s use affects its effects.
After using the ring of fire spell, drinking the medicine gourd will restore more health, and use it outside the ring of fire is less effective. Use the vellus spell to summon a group of helpers to help you temporarily out of combat. In addition, after transformation, the protagonist can use specific weapons related to transformation, such as the fire wolf’s flame sword or the insect’s poisonous attribute attack.
