The gaming world often sees projects attempting to capitalize on the success of popular titles. However, Wukong Sun: Black Legend isn't just inspired by other games; it appears to directly copy elements from Game Science's hit. The visual style, the staff-wielding protagonist, and plot summary strongly resemble a direct imitation.
Currently available for pre-order on the US eShop, the game's future is uncertain. The blatant similarities raise concerns about copyright infringement, potentially leading Game Science to pursue legal action and have the game removed from the platform.
Wukong Sun: Black Legend's description reads: “Embark on an epic journey to the West. Play as the immortal Wukong, the legendary Monkey King, fighting for order in a chaotic world teeming with powerful monsters and deadly dangers. Explore a story inspired by Chinese mythology, featuring intense battles, stunning locations, and legendary enemies.”
This description bears a striking resemblance to Black Myth: Wukong, an epic Chinese mythology-based adventure from a small Chinese studio that unexpectedly soared in popularity, even topping Steam charts. Black Myth: Wukong boasts exceptional detail, engaging gameplay, and challenging yet accessible combat, blending elements of the souls-like genre with newcomer-friendly mechanics. The combat system encourages strategic thinking without requiring extensive guides. Visually, the game shines with its fluid animations and breathtaking battles.
The game's greatest strengths are its setting and visual design, immersing players in a captivating world with stunning character designs and environments. Many gamers believe Black Myth: Wukong deserved a "Game of the Year 2024" nomination at The Game Awards.
