Audience Reviews Even Better Than Critic Scores!

Story Highlight
  • Black Myth Wukong was released on August 20, and the game received fairly solid reviews from the critics.
  • After its release, audience reception has been even better, with an average rating of 10/10 on Steam.
  • This rating has stayed consistently high despite the action RPG boasting more than 200K reviews.

Game Science delivered an action RPG that has been met with unanimous acclaim in 2024. Black Myth: Wukong stands tall as this year’s biggest release, and the results speak for themselves.

While critic reviews are already quite telling, the audience reception is perhaps Game Science’s biggest achievement. Black Myth: Wukong currently boasts a 10/10 rating on Steam.

Why it matters: Game Science has successfully appealed to both Chinese gamers and Western audiences. The studio’s action RPG is naturally designed for people from China, but it does this without sacrificing Western appeal.

Black Myth Wukong was released on Steam on August 20, and it has been doing very well since then, impressing everyone and breaking records.

However, the interesting part here is that the action RPG gathered over 200K Steam reviews in just two days. Generally, most games take months to reach this many reviews. Furthermore, after such a high number of reviews, the average can often take a hit.

For Black Myth: Wukong, however, this does not seem to be an issue. With more than 96% of the reviews being positive, the average score rounds off to a 10/10. Looking at the reviews, Steam users have praised the combat and boss battles.

Many have also noted that Game Science surprised them since they came in with cautious optimism. The breathtaking visuals have been another highlight, further reinforcing the positive thoughts.

The action RPG is now being considered an inspiration for developers who hope to create experiences that make no compromises. This is the biggest secret behind Game Science’s success.

Whether it be gameplay, visuals, or narrative, the title delivers on all fronts.

Black Myth: Wukong is also constantly breaking its own concurrent player count records.

After it broke Palworld’s record, the title achieved new records for two consecutive days. Having reached over 2.4 million players on Steam today, it has led to speculations about a potential all-time peak beyond 3 million concurrent players during the weekend.
