The Summer Game Fest unveiled today the release date of Black Myth: Wukong. Through the trailer, we also discovered the consoles it will be available on. A trailer that left players puzzled.
Indeed, Game Science’s upcoming game will not be available on Xbox at its launch on August 20. It is currently available for pre-order on PlayStation 5 and PC. According to a FAQ, the Xbox version requires additional optimization time. An optimization that will delay its release on the Microsoft platform.
Game Science stated: “We are currently optimizing the Xbox Series X/S version to meet our quality standards. It will therefore not be launched simultaneously with the other platforms.”
The delay aims to ensure that the game meets the quality standards set for other platforms. The statement also mentions that they are seeking to minimize the wait for Xbox players and will announce the release date once the optimization is completed.
