Wukong Has Some Pretty Interesting Steam Reviews

There’s a constant back and forth within the gaming community about what constitutes a Soulslike, and it’s dominating the conversation surrounding Black Myth: Wukong in too many circles. It’s an excellent action game with Soulslike mechanics, an enthralling story to tell, unique characters, and rewarding yet challenging boss fights. These and other qualities have come up often in early user reviews. To capture how much fun (some) people are having with the game, we’ve sifted through loads of jokes, memes, and thoughtfully written takes on Steam to put our finger on the pulse of the community at large.

As expected, reviews for Wukong run the gamut. There are genuine reactions from people who finished the main story within a day or two of release, calls to reject modernity and embrace monke, artwork that we probably can’t share, and more than a few complaints about difficulty spikes. It’s sometimes challenging to get a clear consensus on a game due to the number of joke reviews posted on Steam, but Valve’s recent crackdown means we can now gain better insight. (Although things still aren’t perfect.)

Let’s be honest, it’s fun checking out the occasional bit of creativity on Steam. But for the most part, Black Myth: Wukong has garnered a worldwide following and many sincere reviews as players continue to embrace frantic, action-packed gameplay as The Destined One.

If you’re still on the fence about buying the game yourself, here is Black Myth: Wukong, as told by Steam reviews:
