Black Myth: Wukong Rumors - Two DLCs Expected!

Exciting rumors are circulating that Black Myth: Wukong could soon be expanding with not one, but two downloadable content (DLC) packs. This speculation comes from a reliable source known for accurate leaks, who has also hinted at the codename for a potential sequel.

Released on August 20 for PS5 and PC, Black Myth: Wukong—developed by the Chinese studio Game Science — has taken the gaming world by storm, selling over 10 million copies within its first three days. The action RPG has quickly become a standout success.

Black Myth: Wukong Reportedly Getting Two DLCs

According to Twitter user IgnusTheWise (also known as Lunatic Ignus), who has previously shared accurate details about the game, Game Science is planning to release two DLCs for Black Myth: Wukong. While no specific release dates have been provided, the leaker indicates that these DLCs will be launched before the next installment in the franchise.

Potential Sequel: Black Myth: Jiang Ziya

Adding to the excitement, Lunatic Ignus also suggested that the sequel to Black Myth: Wukong might be codenamed Black Myth: Jiang Ziya. Although Game Science has yet to officially confirm this, the idea aligns with the developer’s goal to build a new ARPG series rooted in Chinese mythology. Jiang Ziya, a prominent figure in Chinese folklore and literature, could serve as the central character in the next game, similar to how Wukong draws from the Sun Wukong character in Journey to the West.

Additional Insights

The leaker also revealed that Black Myth: Wukong was originally envisioned to include 13 chapters, but the final game features only six. It remains unclear if the upcoming DLCs will incorporate content from these initially planned chapters, but it’s a common practice for post-release content to build on earlier concepts.

Meanwhile, Game Science is working on an Xbox version of the game. Originally slated for a simultaneous release with the PS5 and PC versions, the Xbox edition has faced an indefinite delay as of June 2024. While the exact reason for the delay hasn't been disclosed, there have been rumors suggesting a temporary exclusivity deal with Sony.

Stay tuned for more updates on these potential DLCs and the next chapter in the Black Myth saga!
