Black Myth: Wukong DLC Coming Soon – Everything We Know About New Content and Release Date!

Black Myth Wukong Chapter 2
Release date and speculation

The upcoming DLC for Black Myth: Wukong by Game Science, which was confirmed after the game's commercial success, is expected to expand the storyline of Sun Wukong’s mythical journey. The expansion is anticipated to release in early 2025, with speculation pointing toward a late January launch to coincide with the Chinese New Year. This timing would be symbolic and culturally resonant, as the game is steeped in Chinese mythology and is one of the country’s most prominent recent gaming successes.


Black Myth: Wukong draws heavily from Journey to the West, a rich source with a vast mythological landscape. The Black Myth: Wukong DLC could delve into lesser-known realms or heavenly courts, each filled with unique enemies or supernatural entities. This might include new boss encounters inspired by specific folklore or celestial creatures not yet featured in the main game.

Extended Storylines and Alternate Endings

The base game’s narrative focus on Sun Wukong’s journey may be extended with additional story arcs, exploring unfinished parts of the legend. Given Wukong’s complex character, we might see alternate story paths or endings that delve deeper into his relationships with characters like Xuanzang or the other pilgrims, enriching the game's already myth-heavy storyline​.


As a master of transformations, Wukong might gain access to new abilities in the DLC, potentially transforming into creatures inspired by other Chinese myths. This could open up fresh gameplay mechanics, like new traversal methods or combat styles tailored to each form, adding depth and variety to Wukong’s combat capabilities​

Conclusion

While Game Science has been tight-lipped about specific content, industry insiders suggest it may include new areas, enemies, and possibly even additional powers for Wukong. The studio is also working on an Xbox Series X|S version, though no release date for that has been set, as the primary focus remains on DLC development​


Given the game’s immense popularity, selling over 18 million copies within weeks of its release, this DLC is highly anticipated among fans. However, Game Science has yet to release official gameplay details or a full reveal, which many expect will come closer to the December holidays​.
