Black Myth Wukong won’t be available on Xbox at launch.
The Soulslike game from Chinese developer Game Science is now available to pre-order ahead of its release on 20th August this year, as announced at tonight’s Summer Game Fest with a fresh trailer (see below).
However, an FAQ for pre-orders states this release date is only for PS5 and PC as the Xbox version needs more time for optimisation.
“PC and PS5 users can enjoy the full game starting August 20, 2024,” reads the full statement. “We are currently optimising the Xbox Series X/S version to meet our quality standards, so it won’t release simultaneously with the other platforms. We apologise for the delay and aim to minimize the wait for Xbox users. We will announce the release date as soon as it meets our quality standards.”
