It Works With Or Without Having Read Journey To The West
Black Myth: Wukong is the new souls-like game everyone is talking about and from the sounds of the preview at Rock, Paper, SHOTGUN it isn’t as difficult as the Elden Ring DLC. If you are of the Get Gud! persuasion this might be a turn off but for those of us no longer talented enough to beat Dark Souls using an electrified kumquat as a controller that could be considered good news. That’s not to say it lacks the need to dodge the attacks of skyscraper sized rat shaped Yaoguai lest you be insta-killed, as that is still a thing, but it seems Black Myth: Wukong’s linear design lends itself to making exploring more enjoyable and less a great way to die in interesting and horrific ways.
If you thinking about grabbing it and are unsure if you’ll be able to enjoy all the graphics features, TechPowerUp investigated the performance for you. It is worth mentioning the upscaling setting is a slider instead of labels like Quality and Balance, which is why the testing results mention percentages. An RTX 4090 can manage to maintain over 60FPS with cinematic settings at 3840×2160 with a 66% upscale enabled. On the other hand, to maintain 60 FPS at 1080p with 66% scaling, highest settings, and no path tracing or frame generation you’ll need a RTX 3090 Ti, RTX 4070 Super or RX 7900 XT. If you want to drive 1440p at similar settings the bar is raised even higher, you want to use at least an RTX 4070 Ti or RX 7900 XT.
No wonder the Black Myth: Wukong benchmark tool is so popular at the moment! Check out more details on the settings and what performance to expect in the full post.
