We got to play a 2 hour preview of Black Myth: Wukong at Summer Game Fest 2024. Is it a Soulslike? Does it live up to the hype? With sharp combat and powerful spells, Black Myth: Wukong is definitely one to keep an eye on. Join us as we explore what makes this game one of the best Action RPGs we've played since Lies Of P!

    This is one of the best demo analysis I've ever seen. Well done, GamesRadar. Well done.
  • So relieved that it’s not a soulslike! I’m a gamer dad with 2 kids, got no time to lose all my XP while dying in a game

    Just wanted to point out that the game does have a block/parry system. One of few ways we’ve seen players parry enemy attacks is through a light-heavy combo in Smash Stance, which has a mechanic similar to GP (guard point) in Monster Hunter. “Stone Solid” is another block/parry ability that’s been revealed. In previous demos, it was also shown that certain bosses (like the Macaque Chief) have the ability to parry player attacks as well.
  • One of the things I don't understand about video games is, since last gen there are fewer and fewer monsters, whether new God of War or Monster Hunter World, there's significantly less variety in the enemies compared to their predecessors, and the situation has worsened in this gen. I'm glad that Wukong chose the difficult path of making many diverse enemies to meet players' needs, wish them a lot of success.
  • "very few of those absurdly delayed dodge baiting attack animations that have infested many modern action RPGs" THANK THE GODS!!! hype restored!

    I’m so glad it’s not a soulslike. I just watched a guy play Elden Ring DLC and it looked like mental torture lol. Something more akin to God of War is perfect
  • @PAXperMortem
    It looks so damn good! Not just the graphics, but the abilities and enemies too!!
  • I’m glad it’s not like souls.. I’m just tryna relax a lil bit while playing, ain tryna be sweating and on the edge of my seat every battle.💯

  • We went from callong every hard game a souls like to being way too obtuse about it. This video absolutely described a souls like.
  • @BingusDad
    I still can believe that a game can actually look this good.
