Black Myth: Wukong is one of the most anticipated games of 2024. So, today’s news may displease some who were looking forward to it. Game Science has updated the game’s Steam store page, revealing that it will be using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech.
Game Science will self-publish the game on PC. So, it will be interesting to see whether – and if – it will remove Denuvo after one or two years.
Black Myth Wukong is a third-person action game that will be powered by Unreal Engine 5. The game will support full Ray Tracing on the PC, so expect this to be a really GPU-heavy title. PC gamers can expect ray-traced Global Illumination, Shadows and Reflections. Moreover, the game will support both NVIDIA DLSS 3.5 Frame Generation and Ray Reconstruction.
Yesterday, the devs shared the translated PC system requirements. These PC requirements are WITH DLSS/FSR/XeSS. And, although they did not specify the mode they used, we can assume that it was the Performance Mode.
So, to get a smooth experience at 4K with DLSS and Ray Tracing, you’ll need an Intel Core i7 9700 or an AMD Ryzen 5 5500 with 32GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Super.
In a way, these PC requirements seem similar to those of another UE5 game, Hellblade 2. In Hellblade 2, our NVIDIA RTX 4090 could not push 60fps at native resolution. To get framerates over 60fps at all times, we had to either enable DLSS 3 Frame Generation or DLSS 3 Super Resolution. And, from the looks of it, this will be the case and in Black Myth: Wukong.
Game Science will release Black Myth: Wukong on August 20th.
Stay tuned for more!

I so fed up with soulslikes. Now i not interested in this type of games.
isnt it more action adventure?
Unreal Engine and Denuvo goes together about as well as Disney and Star Wars.
Both bloatware. There's this test someone did by coding Breakout in both Unreal and Unity, the Unreal build ended up several times the size of the Unity build.
such a f*king shame
That's okay, I wasn't planning on getting it at launch anyway.
130gb + Denuvo. Not for me, too bad this was one from a very small game list i was looking for, not anymore. Maybe one day on gog or a free copie on Epic game store.
Interested in this one but i think I can wait for a sale.
I really don't understand what drives these devs to use Denuvo when the hype is already there ? why sabotage your image as a studio when this is your first game and trying to make a statement … that's weakness
Software piracy has increased to 40% in 2023 (up from 17% the year before). China is the number one hotspot of pirated software so it makes sense they want to secure game sales for at least the first three months.
I see you making up numbers/statistics again. So riddle me this batboy why does Elden Ring have 93,223 people in game while I'm responding to you? Elden Ring was released 2 FUQIN YEARS AGO! Feb, 24th 2022. On launch day, Elden Ring had 737,127 people online.You gotta stop with the invention of numbers and stats. At this point most gamers have no idea how to pirate a damn game, they are so brainedwashed that steam has their back, that their loyalty is unchallenged. Not only do they now know how to pirate, they are afraid that their PC is going to blow up. This ain't 1999.
Sekiro was also released 5 years ago with 6.702 people in game. The Witcher 3 has 9,413 people IN GAME! Cyberpunk 2077 have 23,954 people in game. All these game have no Denuvo. 2 of them have no DRM AT ALL! Why do you choose to live this way? But Before you answer that, Elden Ring had 737,127 people on launch day.

Do you want to understand?
It's a Chinese developer. The Chinese and Russians are the biggest pirates in the world. If they don't put Denuvo on it, no one pays for the game.

Tell that to Krafton. With that type of move, i will be pirating the hell out of it a year from now when Denuvo contact is up. I did the same with that Dead Space Ripoff. Any game that has Denuvo in it I'm pirating the hell out of it when it gets cracked.
Because 95% of the market couldn't care less.
Too many of these types of games now. I am not even excited for the Erdtree dlc and I finished Elden Ring.
Welp, into the trash it goes.
😂🤣😭 IMAGINE! First seeing this and so interested. Then to wait five years for them to tell you that you won't be allowed to play it. Haha, all I can do is laugh at this point. This one is off my list, Good Riddance. I got played son 🍾🥳
The Chinese and Japanese love their Denuvo and Unreal Engine bloat.
These games already lag before they even get to the start menu.
oh no I can't pirate this game!…should I give them money? nah f*k that I'll just play thousands of other games for free.
F*** you Chinese developer/publisher , i hope this game is gonna FLOP hard , pieces of sh*ts !
At least we know who the main boss is.
the West obviously !…
Hey, it's Asian soulslike game n0 205925028520820428402840284028402840284.
How exciting….
common guys its a Chinese title what did you expect
Good. Protect your IP from PC pirate scüm.
It's been years of hard work.
Pre-orderedon EPIC!!
Eh, I'll just wait until Denuvo expires, and pirate this ch*nk garbage for free then, just to piss you off. 😆
Like I'd give this garbage company a single cent, or Epic for that matter. Go seethe in the corner, degenerate.
I'll buy an extra copy on ur behalf and gift it to one of my LGBT friends, worry not!
Cdkeys have Steam keys at 22% off.
Epic, make piracy great again.
Hes a liberal. You may as well be talking to a turnip.

Haha, I love when people compare other humans to a fruit/vegetable. It's the ultimate diss that says, "homeboy is braindead". A turnip this man said.
chinese garbage + those requirements, like you gotta upgrade your system ever 2/3 years now to play crap on ultra, gotta get those High-End bugs running good. Plus the Denuvo really kills FPS.
let's be honest, Denuvo killes piracy for games that have it.
