Black Myth: Wukong Is Coming To Xbox Consoles
Well, here we are, Black Myth: Wukong has its official release date for Xbox.
The game will be released on Xbox Series X/S on August 20, 2025. Strangely enough, this will be exactly one year after the game first launched on PlayStation 5 and PC. I say that because there was a lot of online chatter about this game in regards to it having a timed exclusivity period on consoles.
It was said that PlayStation had locked down an exclusive console release period for the game.
In a statement to Windows Central back in June 2024, Xbox has this to say on the matter:
“We’re excited for the launch of Black Myth Wukong on Xbox Series X|S and are working with Game Science to bring the game to our platforms. We can’t comment on the deals made by our partners with other platform holders, but we remain focused on making Xbox the best platform for gamers, and great games are at the center of that.”
However, we can officially put all those concerns to bed as the game now has its Xbox release date. That is also not the only news, the game will also be going on sale for 20% off starting June 18th. The sale will apply to the PlayStation 5 and PC version of the game.
On that same day, the pre-orders for the Xbox version of the game will also go live.
