The Black Myth Wukong Buddha’s eyeballs are special collectibles hidden around Chapter 2’s desert region, with locations in all sorts of desert dead ends and sandy crevices. The Buddha’s eyes refer to the energy drawn from the heads of statues found aroundBlack Myth Wukong, and once you’ve found all of them, you can use them to have an optional boss fight with a creature called Shigandang - and get one of the game’s most powerful items. With that in mind, here’s all the locations of the Buddha’s Eyeballs in Black Myth Wukong and where to find Shigandang.
All Buddha’s Eyeballs locations in Black Myth Wukong
There are six Buddha Eyeball collectables in Black Myth Wukong, spread around the second chapter. Each one is obtained by finding a statue of the Buddha’s head and interacting with it, whereupon the Destined One literally drains the light from its eyes. Here are all of their locations:
If you have found all six of Buddha’s Eyeballs in Black Myth Wukong, they’re used to unlock a new boss called Shigandang. To find it, you need to progress the main story to the point where you fight the boss called theStone Vanguard.
Return to the arena you fought it once you’re done (next to the Rock Clash Platform checkpoint), and there’ll be a large, dark rock in the corner of the arena, half stuck in the ground. Get close to it, and there’ll be an option to “deliver”. Trigger this to start the boss fight with Shigandang.

Shigandang is a big, slow enemy somewhere between the Stone Vanguard you fought here before, and theBlack Myth Wukong Black Bear Guaiin chapter 1, in that he uses slow, wide attacks and serves as a big, tanky target. Still, Shigandang isn’t anything as versatile as the Black Bear, and has a relatively basic moveset that’s very similar to the Vanguard, with swinging forearms and some area attacks based on causing the ground to erupt into spikes.
Staying behind him will give you a major advantage, as well as timing your jumps to clear the inevitable quakes caused by his fists glowing orange. The fact that there’s a checkpoint right next to the arena is also something you should make use of - reset yourBlack Myth Wukong manabar and skill cooldowns just before the fight, and it shouldn’t be too hard.
The Buddha’s Eyeballs themselves don’t award you anything but the chance to fight Shigandang, but beating that boss fight rewards you with all kinds of good loot, including:
