It’s worth noting that the game will only run on 64-bit versions of Windows 10 or 11. The developers recommend using an SSD for improved performance, especially at higher graphics settings. Gamers can test if their setup can handle the game with the recent release of the benchmarking tool from Game Science.

A moderate PC setup can achieve basic gameplay without advanced graphics features like ray tracing. A graphics card such as the GTX 1060 or RX 580, combined with a processor like the Core i5-8400 or Ryzen 5 1600, should handle medium settings at 1080p resolution. For those prioritizing high resolution over ray tracing, consider upgrading to an RTX 4070 or RX 7800 XT graphics card. While the processor requirements remain the same, you’ll need 12 GB of video memory and 32 GB of system RAM for optimal performance.

While the requirements for running the game at medium settings are relatively modest, players looking to experience the game at its best will need more powerful hardware, particularly in the GPU department. Black Myth: Wukong is currently slated for release on PC and PS5, with no immediate release date announced for an Xbox Series X/S version.
