On August 20, 2025, exactly one year after its groundbreaking debut on PC and PlayStation 5, the award-winning action RPG Black Myth: Wukong will finally unleash its mythical adventure on Xbox Series X/S consoles. Developed by Game Science, this visually stunning adaptation of the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West took the gaming world by storm in 2024, selling an astonishing 20 million copies in its first month alone.

The game's incredible success was recognized at The Game Awards 2024, where it received nominations in five prestigious categories including Game of the Year and Best Art Direction. Black Myth: Wukong ultimately triumphed in both the Best Action Game and Players' Voice categories, cementing its status as one of the year's most beloved titles.

What makes Black Myth: Wukong's achievement particularly remarkable is that it reached these staggering sales figures while being available on only two platforms initially. The absence of an Xbox version sparked numerous theories, ranging from rumored PlayStation exclusivity deals to technical challenges in optimizing the game for Microsoft's consoles, particularly the less powerful Xbox Series S.

Game Science has confirmed that the Xbox version will launch with all post-release content previously added to the PC and PS5 editions. This includes the highly praised boss rush mode, new armor sets, additional maps, and various gameplay enhancements that have significantly expanded the original experience.

The Xbox release comes at an exciting time for fans, as Game Science has hinted at upcoming DLC expansions. While specific details remain under wraps, the additional content promises to further enrich the game's deep combat system and expansive mythological world.
