On the live broadcast of the opening night of the Cologne exhibition, Game Science, a developer of "Black Myth: Wukong", officially announced the second work of the "Black Myth" series, "Black Myth: Zhong Kui". This work takes the famous character "Zhong Kui" in Chinese folk legends as its main creative source. It is a stand-alone, action, role-playing game, and is still in the early development stage.
After the announcement of "Black Myth: Zhong Kui", the official website of the game was launched simultaneously. The official website's "FAQ" answered questions such as why Zhong Kui was first made instead of "Wukong", what is the connection between the two, when will it be released, and what platform to log in to.
In the FAQ, the official confirmed to fans of "Black Myth: Wukong" that there will be a sequel to "Black Myth: Wukong", "Journey to the West, it won't end here."

Q: Why did you choose to announce "Black Myth: Zhong Kui" now?
Of course, it is because on August 20 every year, Game Science will report to everyone the latest work progress.
Considering that the studio has just been built, there is no sign of the actual machine.In order to maintain the normal development pace, we chose to make a CG short video to inform everyone that this new project has officially entered the development state.
Question: Why do you make Zhong Kui first? Not the sequel to "Black Myth: Wukong"?
With everyone's continued support, the first work of "Black Myth" has been safely implemented.After the story of destiny comes to an end, we are very eager to try some more different game experiences, tinker with a few more challenging game styles, and also create some new things in the world view and narrative.
Zhong Kui is a natural choice after considering such a mood and many other factors.——In this new game, we are confident to make refreshing changes and new ideas, and we will also reflect on the shortcomings and regrets of the past.
For all friends who love "Black Myth: Wukong", we want to say: Journey to the West will not end here.
Q: As the second work in the Black Myth series, what are the differences between "Black Myth: Zhong Kui" and "Black Myth: Wukong"?
First of all, we can see from the name that "Black Myth: Zhong Kui" is still based on ancient Chinese myths and folk legends.
Secondly, it is still a standard stand-alone, action, role-playing game, with a business model no different from the previous one.
In the end, I shouldn't play the role of monkey again this time.Well, we are still exploring and trial and error about the specific arrangements of player characters.Please pack the instant noodles first, let us impress ourselves with the quality first, and then take it out and hand it over to you to play with.

Q: Can you reveal more about the plot and gameplay of "Black Myth: Zhong Kui"?
It’s hard to say, it seems that the outline has not been finished yet!The colleagues in the development team are enthusiastic and eager to try it out, wanting to tell new stories and make new fun, and wanting to make all players who like Black Monkey familiar and surprise (barely hee.gif).
The Heavenly Master Zhong Kui is an important "Ghost-exorcist" in the traditional Chinese mythology system. He was authorized by the King of Hell to manage all the unfair things in the world. He has been filmed in TV series one after another, including the "Bao Qingtian" Jin Chaoqun version and the Ouyang Zhenhua version. Among them, the Jin Chaoqun version, which was co-produced by Singapore and Taiwan, is the most classic.
"The First Unit of the 94 Singapore Edition of "The Heavenly Master Zhong Kui" tells the origin story of Zhong Kui being named the General of the Demon Subduing by Emperor Minghuang of Tang. I wonder if the game version of the game science will refer to these drama versions.
