Are you with the groom or the giant spider?
All ofBlack Myth: Wukong’s trailers so far have looked stunning, but each one has focused on horrible monsters and combat with horrible monsters. Today’s new trailer takes a different tact. It’s a six minute-long cutscene in which some sisters discuss their mothers impending marriage, but it’s no less beautiful to look at.
Plus, if you stick to theveryend, you’ll still get to see a new horrible monster.
That’s a very large spider.
It seems unlikely you’ll have time to admire that fidelity while playing. Black Myth: Wukong is a third-person action game, in which you’ll be dodge-rolling, dashing and timing melee attacks against enemies several times larger than you. The most obvious modern touchpoint isDark Souls, though there’s a lot that’s not yet obvious about how the game is structured so that comparison might prove fairly shallow.
If you want more of a sense of what combat is like, you can watch previous trailers featuringa giant wolf, agiant rat, and agiant snowy dragon. You can also find a few details and plenty of screenshotsat its official site.
