The very promising soulslikeBlack Myth: Wukonghas been given a release date.

The game, which takes inspiration from the 16th-century Chinese novel Journey to the West, looks as impressive as ever in the new footage. In it, we see some of the mammoth and ferocious creatures we, as Sun Wukong - aka the Monkey King - will be up against spliced with snippets of story.

Black Myth: Wukong is coming to PS5 and Xbox Series X as well as PC, and is definitely one to keep on your radar if you’re a fan ofFromSoftwaregames, particularly Sekiro. You can check out the new trailer below, which includes a bonus scene not featured in the version shown at The Game Awards.
