Dragon Ball Z Meets Black Myth: Wukong in Exciting New Mod

The influence of Journey to the West on Dragon Ball is well-documented, and now, this connection has come full circle with a new mod for Black Myth: Wukong. This mod introduces an intriguing twist by replacing the protagonist, The Destined One, with none other than Son Goku from Dragon Ball Z.

This mod is a simple yet charming alteration—there's no Kamehameha or Super Saiyan transformations involved. Instead, it lets players experience Black Myth: Wukong's richly detailed world through the eyes of Goku. Players can even take to the skies on a cloud that resembles Goku's iconic Flying Nimbus, which itself draws from the same source material as Black Myth: Wukong. You can see Goku in action in the video below.

In addition to this Dragon Ball Z crossover, a range of other mods for Black Myth: Wukong is available. These include options to swap the main character with Tifa from Final Fantasy, replace The Destined One’s staff with a double-bladed lightsaber, and make various adjustments to the game's visuals and performance.

However, be prepared for a demanding gaming experience. To fully enjoy Black Myth: Wukong, you'll need a powerful setup. Our reviewer, Mitchell Saltzman, used a high-end GeForce RTX 4090 and still faced several crashes and technical issues. Despite these challenges, Black Myth: Wukong has achieved impressive milestones, with record-breaking concurrent players on Steam and selling 10 million copies within just three days.
