The gaming world often sees projects attempting to capitalize on the success of popular titles. However, Wukong Sun: Black Legend goes beyond mere inspiration; it exhibits a concerning level of similarity to Game Science's acclaimed Black Myth: Wukong. The visual style, the protagonist wielding a staff, and the plot synopsis strongly suggest direct imitation.
Currently available for pre-order on the US eShop, the game's future remains uncertain. The apparent plagiarism raises the possibility of a copyright infringement lawsuit from Game Science, potentially leading to its 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 teeming with powerful monsters and deadly dangers. Explore a story inspired by Chinese mythology, featuring intense battles, breathtaking locations, and legendary enemies.”
This description closely mirrors the premise of Black Myth: Wukong, an epic adventure drawing from Chinese mythology that unexpectedly soared in popularity, even topping Steam charts. Black Myth: Wukong boasts exceptional detail, engaging gameplay, and challenging yet accessible combat, blending souls-like elements with a user-friendly approach. The combat system is thoughtfully designed, avoiding the need for extensive guides while still demanding strategic thinking. Visually, the battles are stunning, showcasing fluid animations.
The game's greatest strengths lie in its captivating setting and exquisite visual design. Players are immersed in a breathtaking fantasy world, captivated by the stunning character design and environmental artistry. Many gamers believe Black Myth: Wukong deserved a "Game of the Year 2024" nomination at The Game Awards.
