How Long to Beat Black Myth: Wukong? – Answered

With the overall scope of games ballooning over the years and so many of us with little time to spend in a 100-hour single-player game, it’s nice knowing the length of an upcoming game to prepare mentally and physically. For instance, how long does it take to beat Black Myth: Wukong?

How Long Does it Take to Beat Black Myth: Wukong?

According to developer Game Science, the average player will take 15 to 20 hours to complete Black Myth: Wukong. Back in 2020, when they first started showing off the game, they estimated approximately 15 hours, so little has changed since then.

However, some reports indicate players may spend as much as 50 hours on a single playthrough. We know there’s optional side content to explore, including unique zones and bosses off the beaten path. If you’re the type of player to find every nook and cranny, completing the game will take longer.

Furthermore, if you struggle with any of the game’s bosses, the storyline will take a bit longer to finish. But hey, there’s no shame in that!

If you’re a massive fan of the Soulslike genre, such as Elden Ring or Bloodborne, then you’ll likely find Black Myth: Wukong a walk in the park. Developer Game Science claims the experience is somewhat easier than your typical Soulslike game.

That said, some reports from those who have hands-on time with its gameplay liken it to a more challenging God of War or slightly less complicated Sekiro. Overall, it sounds like the team aims to capture a nice balance between difficulty and fun!
