The gaming world often sees projects attempting to capitalize on successful titles. However, Wukong Sun: Black Legend goes beyond mere inspiration; it exhibits significant similarities to Black Myth: Wukong, raising concerns about potential copyright infringement. The visual style, the protagonist wielding a staff, and the plot synopsis strongly resemble Game Science's acclaimed game.
Currently available for pre-order on the US eShop, the game's future remains uncertain. Given the apparent plagiarism, Game Science could pursue legal action for copyright infringement, leading to the game's removal from the platform.
Wukong Sun: Black Legend's description reads: “Embark on an epic journey to the West. Play as the immortal Wukong, the legendary Monkey King, battling for order in a chaotic world filled with formidable monsters and deadly perils. Explore a story inspired by Chinese mythology, featuring intense combat, breathtaking locations, and legendary foes.” This description closely mirrors the premise of Black Myth: Wukong.
In contrast, Black Myth: Wukong, an RPG from a small Chinese studio, unexpectedly achieved massive popularity, topping Steam charts. The game boasts exceptional detail, engaging gameplay, and challenging yet accessible combat (incorporating elements of the Souls-like genre). Its combat system and progression are thoughtfully designed, avoiding the need for extensive guides while still demanding strategic thinking. Visually, the game's fluid animations make the battles spectacular.
The game's greatest strengths are its setting and visual design. The stunning character designs and world beauty create an immersive, captivating experience. Many gamers believe Black Myth: Wukong deserved a "Game of the Year 2024" nomination at the TGA.
