About This Game:

"Are there truly ghosts in this world? All demons arise from the heart.

Monsters below the stage, immortals above—what a duality of faces!

Inside the door, a mess of confusion; outside, who calls for justice?

Sun and moon hang empty in their cycles, who holds the power of life and death?

Neither following human sentiment nor the Way, seeking no fame nor favor.

Draw the sword, yes, draw the sword,

To distinguish between the pure and the turbid!

Black Myth: Zhong Kui, the second installment in the Black Myth series developed by Game Science, debuted at gamescom ONL 2025. This single-player action RPG draws its primary creative inspiration from Zhong Kui of Chinese folklore. The new demo offers the first look at protagonist combat and selected story scenes. The game remains in early development, so the final release may differ."

BLACK MYTH: ZHONG KUI

I'm really wishing it'll play / feel as incredible as it looks

I was absolutely LOVING Wukong until I got to the Erlang Shen boss fight. That fight is so absurdly unbalanced (when compared to EVERY other boss fight in the game), it's flat out comical... But dang, I can't let "one rotten apple to spoil the whole barrel", right...? I will still regard Wukong as one of the best games I played in recent years, and here's hoping Zhong Kui follows suit
