This summer has felt like a bit of a lull in the year's gaming release schedule so there are a lot of eyes on the Black: Myth Wukong release time. The Chinese mythology action RPG with Souls-ish qualities has enjoyed a good streak at the top of the list of most wishlisted games on Steam as everyone waits to see if it's the next big thing.
The reviews so far have been quite positive, including our own Black Myth: Wukong review in which Tyler Colp says it "blossoms with an eccentric cast of characters and expressive combat all wrapped up in the rich world of its source material." It's not exactly a Soulslike game, with a combat system that focuses on stances instead of new weapons and a more compact level design that sends you into boss fights with less exploration between them. "Wukong is its own beast," Colp also said.
