Black Myth: Wukong Already Has a Lightsaber Mod

Key Takeaways

  • Black Myth: Wukong is already a surprise hit with over 10 million copies sold globally.
  • Lightsaber mod for the game allows players to replace weapons with the iconic Star Wars weapon.
  • The mod creator advises that the lightsaber mod isn’t compatible with the “Enhanced Wukong Visuals” mod.

As a lifelong gamer with a penchant for both Eastern and Western mythologies, I must say that the recent addition of a lightsaber mod to Black Myth: Wukong has me absolutely thrilled! The game’s rapid success and its impressive modding community are making it a force to be reckoned with in the gaming world.

Within just a few days of its debut, the action-adventure game, Black Myth: Wukong, has already been modded with a lightsaber. It’s common for games that focus on intricate melee combat to eventually receive a lightsaber makeover, but the speed at which fans have incorporated this iconic Star Wars weapon into Game Science’s latest creation is quite remarkable.

Black Myth: Wukong has been one of this year’s unexpected sensations in the gaming world. Although Game Science’s action RPG showed promising gameplay, many didn’t anticipate such rapid success. In fact, it swiftly claimed the title for the single-player game with the most simultaneous players on Steam ever recorded, and since then, over 10 million copies of Black Myth: Wukong have been sold worldwide. Drawing inspiration from the celebrated Chinese novel Journey to the West, Black Myth: Wukong meets all expectations by immersing players in a distinctive world teeming with extraordinary creatures to vanquish.

In the online platform Nexus Mods, you can find a modification called “Double Bladed Lightsaber” posted by user norskpl. As its name suggests, this mod swaps out Sun Wukong’s weapons in-game with the famous Star Wars lightsaber. Given the game’s recent release, it’s impressive to see how well integrated and visually appealing this modification is within the game. Although it may not align perfectly with the game’s lore, it’s still thrilling to witness it in action. Players have multiple color choices, ensuring they’re not stuck with a single hue. Currently, there are two variations for this mod: one that replaces all of Sun Wukong’s weapons, and another that substitutes the Bronzecloud Staff, which is obtained by purchasing the Deluxe Edition of Black Myth: Wukong.

Black Myth: Wukong Lightsaber Mod Adds Star Wars Crossover

As per the developer, the “Double Bladed Lightsaber” isn’t yet compatible with the “Enhanced Wukong Visuals” mod in the game “Black Myth: Wukong”. This means players have to make a choice between these two features for now. It’s still early days, but it will be intriguing to observe the growth of the modding community around “Black Myth: Wukong”, given its potential to rival established modding communities like those found in Bethesda games. Time will tell if this game can attract the same level of talent and attention from modders.

Following the triumph of Black Myth: Wukong, it’s intriguing to observe how Game Science will respond next. The studio has yet to disclose any plans for future DLC for the game, which isn’t unexpected given the rapid pace of its success. As of now, Black Myth: Wukong is not yet playable on Xbox consoles, and it seems that this is a task that Game Science will likely focus on before exploring other projects.
