Will Black Myth Wukong be the new hope of domestic stand alone?

I believe that many readers who pay attention to the dynamics of domestic games should have been swiped by a paragraph**, which is the actual demonstration of "Black Myth: Wukong" released by Game Science**. To be honest, as a player who plays standalone games more than online games, I really feel after watching this short video, whether it is from the action of the fight or the design of the artifact, I feel very comfortable.

Especially in recent years, domestic stand-alone games are basically just a flash in the pan, and there are fewer and fewer good stand-alone games, as a Chinese player, I am still looking forward to seeing excellent stand-alone games made in China, and not only stand-alone games with excellent storytelling. <

After watching the whole demo**,I went to the Internet to search the official website of the game.,After opening**, the monkey that caught my eye was really handsome. As the most prestigious hero in China and the most adapted, this monkey has carried too many expectations from Chinese players. <>

And what the development team of Black Myth: Wukong presents to players is a more fantastical and exciting world. Speaking of the development team of this game"Game Science", its founder was the producer of the regrettable "God of War" that year, and the "God of War" at that time really amazed countless players in the early stage, but it is a pity that the addition of various kryptonite elements in the later stage made the whole game completely change.

And this time, will it be the monkey we were familiar with? <

Of course, all this they didn't do overnight, they also make mobile games, they have "Hundred Generals" imitating "Dota Legend", and "The Art of War: Red Tide" of auto-chess, but yocar They have never forgotten the fire in their hearts, and the article "Who ** Our Game" they wrote more than ten years ago, since their current mobile games can be full, so, should we make some further attempts? This is an important step for domestic games, and it is also an important step for yocar to prove itself.

Finally, I hope that domestic stand-alone games can get better and better, so that Chinese players can play domestic masterpieces, and they can see the Chinese mythology depicted by the Chinese people themselves in the game. <

The answer is yes. Black Myth Wukong, a stand-alone game, judging from the trailer revealed so far, it can be called a 3A masterpiece. Whether it is Sun Wukong's attack actions or game special effects.

All of them are not available in domestic stand-alone machines in recent years. The attitude of its studio towards the game. is extremely serious, this game will be the hope of domestic stand-alone.

The original planned to run away and make this Wukong.

It's possible.,Because this game is a 3A large-scale game.,The overall painting style is very exquisite.,The details in the game are in place.,It's a height that other large-scale action games are relatively difficult to achieve.,It's estimated that it will set off a storm after the game comes out.。

I think very much so. Because the theme of this stand-alone game is very close to the Chinese people, and the fight scenes are very well designed, and the plot is also very full.

Black Myth: Wukong>> It will definitely be domestic3a masterpiece, because the team that made this game is very good, they areAffiliated"God of War".The original production team of the game, so the quality of this game must be first-class, and it must be a domestic 3A masterpiece to be launched in the future, but the production of this game still needs a lot of manpower, so the game production team will choose to release a promotional video, the main purpose is to let more people know about this game, and at the same time, I hope to attract more masters to join the production of the game, the production process of "Black Myth: Wukong" is very difficult, so it should take a while before it goes online.

I believe that friends who are more interested in the game should have a certain understanding of the game "Black Myth: Wukong", this game is a game with the theme of Journey to the West as the background, so many Journey to the West lovers are attracted by this game, and the production of this game is also very difficult, let's talk about whether this game is a 3A masterpiece.

1. If this game is launched, it will definitely be a domestic 3A masterpiece, because the production team of the game is very good. "Black Myth: Wukong" is the production team of the original Tencent game "God of War", so the quality of this game must be no problem.

Second, the production of "Black Myth: Wukong" still needs a lot of manpower, and the production team released the promotion** to attract more people to join them. The production of this game is very difficult, so it will take a lot of masters to join them in order to get this game online as soon as possible.

3. I believe that this game is worth looking forward to, and it will definitely bring us surprises in the future. This game is very sophisticated in both the plot and the game graphics, and I believe it must be worth our expectations.

It should be a domestic 3A masterpiece, because this black god painting Wukong, in fact, to be honest, is very good-looking, and it is also in line with some of our Chinese characteristics, and it is also integrated with some special Chinese elements.

It's possible. Because Black Myth Wukong is beautifully made and extremely playable, I think it may be a domestic 3A masterpiece.

It is very likely that this is because the overall configuration of this game is relatively advanced, and the sense of operation experience is also very strong, and then it also brings a different feeling to the player.

The official did not disclose the specific release date, and can only continue to wait for official information.

Black Myth: Wukong is an action role-playing game produced by Game Science. The game is still in work and its release date is unknown.

The game is based on "Journey to the West" and "Wukong" as the main story line, restoring the oriental magic world that has always existed in the hearts of players. Landing on PC and all major console platforms, and not excluding cloud gaming platforms that can run PC games smoothly.

Game background

In the game setting, the monkey is the undisputed protagonist, but it is not only about the monkey. In addition to re-shaping the big protagonists, this work also uses top-notch graphics, rich details, immersive combat experience, and sufficient plot interpretation to restore the oriental magic world that has always existed in my heart, and compose a heroic epic full of oriental charm.

On August 20, 2020, "Black Myth: Wukong" was announced.

Black Myth: Wukong is an action role-playing game produced by Game Science, which is still in the works.

The game is based on "Journey to the West" and "Wukong" as the main story line, restoring the oriental magic world that has always existed in players' hearts, landing on PC and all mainstream console platforms, and does not exclude cloud gaming platforms that can run terminal games smoothly.

Game evaluation: "Black Myth: Wukong" has experienced the failure of the God of War era, as well as the accumulation of mobile games over the years, and will do a better job in cost control team management.

It's not just a simple game, but the story behind it may be even more meaningful. And this game is not a dream myth, but the first step towards formal industrialization of China's domestic stand-alone machine.

If the popularity of "Black Myth: Wukong" in China is due to the national dividend of "Journey to the West", but abroad, many international friends who do not have a Journey to the West filter are also attracted by this actual demonstration, and do not hesitate to praise it, "Black Myth: Wukong" seems to be on the right path.

The version of "Cloud Palace Xunyin" selected by "Black Myth: Wukong" is a symphonic version, which is more magnificent and epic than the original version. And this ** appeared just right at the end of the film, which greatly aroused the players' feelings for Journey to the West.

The official release date was not revealed, and the official joked that it should not take more than 500 years. I will release it when I feel satisfied as a player, but I will also consider the marginal effect and cost performance, after all, more works of the Black Myth series are also carefully planned in my dreams.

The paid model of Wukong:

The classic stand-alone payment model of the one-time buyout system does not rule out the sale of DLC and non-numerical in-app purchase content in the future. Also, we'd love to see you save this screenshot in case you can remind us in the future.

The game platform on which "Wukong" is ready to land:

PC+ is a cloud gaming platform that can run terminal games smoothly on all mainstream console platforms.

Now this game is still in development, and the official said that it should not take more than 500 years.

There is hope to break. "Black Myth: Wukong" is more about attracting players' attention to Chinese mythology. "I have to say that the monsters in this game look unique, unlike other fantasy games, and I would love to see more follow-ups."

"The reason why the monsters look different is because the game itself uses a different mythological system than Western mythology. To be honest, there is a real need for fantasy games outside of Greek, Norse, and Tolkien mythology, and the fantasy genres on the market are all outdated.

"It's a good idea to note an introduction to a monster during a fight. I hope this will become the standard for RPGs so that players can understand the background of the game at their leisure.

There are two things I like very much in this demo, one is that Goku extends the golden hoop stick to dodge (which adds a decryption element to the game's combat), and the other is that the battle ** becomes very funny when Goku transforms, which adds fun to the battle" "Thank you to Yuke for bringing a "condensed" version of "Journey to the West", they managed to give us a general understanding of the Journey to the West story and time background, without over-explaining it in the game.

Both at home and abroad, Black Myth: Wukong has been accompanied by controversy since its announcement. However, as a rare 3A masterpiece in China, everyone still looks forward to the finished game.

Personally, I think that the black myth is more likely to become the wandering earth of domestic games rather than the return of the great sage.

I am confident in the quality and commercial performance of Black Myth's game, and I also believe that the profit-seeking nature of capital will make some companies willing to invest in the production of 3A that benchmarks Black Myth, but the problem is that this kind of game has an entry threshold. Just like the Wandering Earth did not trigger a boom in domestic science fiction movies after it became popular, even the three-body problem is still on hold. Is this no one to imitate?

Of course not. Black Myth and The Wandering Earth are too advanced, in Liu Cixin's words, everyone knows that this kind of work will definitely appear, but they didn't expect it to come so early. The price of being ahead of the curve is that there is only one work of the same quality, which is extremely difficult to replicate, and it is difficult to expand the results that are hard to obtain. To ignite the market, the success of a single work alone cannot be done, and neither can two or three, a failed Shanghai fortress after The Wandering Earth can make audiences and investors lose confidence in this kind of work at the same time, and even if Operation Mekong and Operation Red Sea appeared one after another before and after Wolf Warrior 2, similar works still have no successful imitators.

Although it is impossible to have money, money is not everything.

As a lover of Japanese games, I have always believed that learning "high investment, high returns, and high quality" European and American 3A is the right way out for domestic stand-alone machines, because this is the only type on consoles and PCs that can compete with online games (including mobile games, web games, terminal games, etc.) in terms of profitability and player base. But this kind of game is difficult to achieve overnight, the development cycle of Big Cousin 2 is 8 years, and ordinary 3A usually takes about 5 years to develop without borrowing the materials of the previous game, and even the self-proclaimed "mobile game 3A" Genshin Impact took two and a half years from the project to the original initial test, and it took more than a year to the public beta. Therefore, although Genshin Impact was a great commercial success, there were no imitators for a while, and it was not until a year later that various suspected imitators emerged one after another.

No one thinks that the host 3A development cycle that follows after Black Myth will be shorter than Genshin Impact, right?

If Black Myth can be released within 2023 and be successful, then the birth time of the next qualified domestic 3A will be at least after 2026, and there is no way to see what the game market will be like at that time, and maybe even mobile games will be rolled into a high-entry industry. Without sufficient time, technology, funds and an excellent development team, the works that followed the trend during this period are more likely to be inferior products like Shanghai Fortress.

Therefore, if we really want to see the day when the best works come, we should take a long-term view.

I don't think so, even if the quality of the game itself is very good. However, compared with a dominant game market in China, although a small company can come up with decent works, the price behind it may be the hard work of the entire company.

What's more, in today's frequent release of foreign masterpieces, domestic game manufacturers are still thinking about how to cut leeks. Only those of us who love games will insist on changing the game market, but the domestic game market has been monopolized by the mobile game industry.

According to the above game revenue list, it is not difficult to see that most of the revenue of domestic games is mobile games, but there are also more powerful PC games.

For example, on June 13, NetEase's "Naraka: Infinite" announced that it had sold more than 10 million copies worldwide, becoming the first domestic buyout game with global sales exceeding 10 million. Naraka: Bladepoint is a martial arts adventure game developed by 24 Studios and published by NetEase Games Montreal Studio, and the game's sales exceeded 6 million copies on the 90th day of its global release, reaching a new record for domestic buyout game sales.

Naraka: Bladepoint and Black Myth Wukong are not yet the same type of games. Action games like Black Myth Goku. There have been many masterpieces abroad, such as the official release on February 25 this year to the end of June, the cumulative global sales of "Elden Ring" have reached 16.6 million copies.

Issuer Bandai Namco announced this data in its latest financial report.

According to the financial report, in the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, which ended June 30, Bandai Namco's total game sales were about 10,000 copies, and the company's game business revenue reached 40.5 billion yen, an increase of about 55% year-on-year.

"Wolf" was released on March 22, 2019, the steam version supports Chinese simplified Chinese, the current price in the country is 268 yuan, the recent evaluation is "rave reviews", and this game also won the steam 2019 award "Game of the Year".

For example, the above foreign masterpieces abound, but "Naraka: Infinite" has been released in China. It's really hard to find a decent masterpiece. I think it's still the inaction of the game company and the lack of responsibility, and the money in my head is still just bad money.

There is no such thing as a good game at all, I think it is more about the inheritance of culture, the ninth art, rather than the tools that merchants use to make money. There are some things that only the player knows best. As a player here, I also want to make the domestic market better, but the appearance of domestic game companies is really ugly.
