Black Myth Wukong Gameplay-Combat Techniques that Make the Game Irresistible

Black Myth Wukong didn’t receive the Game of the Year Award, but the game is absolutely irresistible, and this can be owed to its fabulous gameplay techniques. The more you play the game, the more you learn about the game, but every boss battle is a real killer in the game. I have been playing Black Myth: Wukong for quite some time now. From Guangzhi’s flaming attacks and Yellowbrow’s lightning attacks to Yellow Wind Sage’s Samadhi Wind and Erlang Shen’s spear, I’ve faced them all. Like many players I’ve spent countless hours trying to navigate through the Webbed Hollow and trying to finish the numerous side quests in the New West. To move through different chapters in the game you not only require combat skills, but also the swiftness to use these skills in a strategic way. Some of the best gameplay features I’ve experienced in Black Myth Wukong will really motivate you to play and experience the game.

Soulslike Combat Mechanics

• Black Myth Wukong features challenging melee combat governed by a stamina bar similar to that of Dark Souls and Sekiro.
• The game involves dodging and timed attacks with a staff.
• Boss battles often require an emphasis on pattern recognition to understand the battle style of each boss.

Transformations and Spells

• You have access to various transformations each obtained as the story progresses and some requiring specific side quests to be completed or optional bosses to be defeated. Transform into a scorch inflicting wolf or a thundering loong warrior and take down your opponent.
• Mysticism spells allow you to immobilize their opponents or boost their own stats.
• Alteration allows you to alter the Destined One’s own body for a tactical advantage in battle.

• The Destined One wields different staffs forged during his journey. Certain materials are required to be collected for each new staff the player desires to craft.
• The Destines One possesses 3 stances which can be used in battle- Smash Stance, Pillar Stance, and Thrust Stance.
• Each of these stances lead to a different heavy attack and different varied combos.
• Focus must be built up and the heavy attack and varied combo damage depends on the number of focus points built up.

Gourd

• The Destined One carries a gourd with him. This gourd contains a certain drink that enables the Destined One to heal himself, recovering a portion of his total health.
• Each sip recovers a certain amount of health and may also allow another boost.
• The portion of health recovered and the additional boost depends upon the drink and the gourd used.
• Drinks can be equipped with Soaks which allow power-ups upon drinking.
• New Drinks, Gourds, and Soaks can be acquired during the journey.

Side Quests

• Apart from the main storyline, the game boasts numerous side quests which can be accessed at various points in the storyline.
• These side quests are essential to acquire new transformations and spells and craft better weapons and armor.
• Side quests often involve interacting with certain NPCs and defeating optional bosses in secret areas.

Boss Battles

• The game features bosses from the 16^th century novel Journey to the West.
• These bosses offer a decent challenge and require pattern analysis of their attacks and combos to beat.
• The boss battles are fast paced and exciting with great battle mechanics.

Cinematic Presentation
