Black Myth: Wukong Has Already Sold 10 Million Copies

As a seasoned gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that Black Myth: Wukong has undeniably left its mark on the gaming world. With 10 million copies sold and counting, it’s clear that this game is not just another fish in the sea – it’s a Great White shark, causing quite a stir.

Wukong has sold an impressive 10 million copies since its launch on August 20. This rapid sales success places it among the top-selling games in recent years. The extraordinary popularity of this title is evident not just from the overall sales figure, but also from its dominance on streaming platforms and breaking player count records on certain platforms.

As a longtime avid reader and book collector, I can confidently say that this monumental title has captured my attention like no other book in recent memory. With over 10 million copies sold and no signs of slowing down, it’s clear that this book is destined to be a timeless classic. From the moment I picked it up, I was hooked by its engaging storyline and well-crafted characters. The way the author weaves together multiple plotlines is nothing short of masterful, and I found myself eagerly turning the pages late into the night to uncover each new twist and turn.

10 Million and Counting

Black Myth: Wukong surpassed peak player count records on Steam, outranking Counter-Strike and claiming the position as the most-played single-player game ever on the platform. It drew in close to half a million simultaneous viewers on Twitch, though it’s believed that it had an even greater impact on Chinese streaming platforms – data for which is currently unavailable.

For a while, the game was shaken by a slight scandal that surfaced. It was revealed that Game Science issued ‘guidelines’ to influencers that prohibited them from streaming the game and talking about topics like feminism and COVID-19. This was enough to rile some in the gaming community, but it did nothing to slow down the overall impact of the game.

In some instances, players have shared challenges in defeating specific bosses, yet this aligns with the essence of the game. It’s a continuation within the genre often labeled as ‘soulslike’, which some call ‘Boss Simulators’. Yet, the opponents in Black Myth: Wukong exhibit originality and uniqueness that sets them apart from other games, even though they share a similar atmosphere with acclaimed titles like Elden Ring.
