It looks like we'll be seeing Black Myth: Wukong on Xbox much sooner than expected. Released earlier this year, Black Myth: Wukong received mostly positive reviews and enjoyed outstanding commercial success. Surpassing all expectations, the game has sold over 20 million units, making it one of the fastest-selling video games of all time. What’s particularly impressive is that Black Myth: Wukong has only been available on two platforms so far.At launch, the game was released for PC and PlayStation 5, while an Xbox version has been long anticipated but yet to arrive. There have been various reports regarding the delay. Some point to technical issues related to the Xbox Series S, while others suggest that a deal may have secured timed exclusivity for the PS5, though this latter theory has been debunked by reliable insiders. Regardless of the reason, it now seems that Xbox players may soon get their chance to experience Black Myth: Wukong.
