Has the elements of a soulsborne game, GoW, and GoT. Although Elden Ring is still my number 1 game, this game follows right behind closely. The only gripe I have is story-telling. This is as majestic and encapsulating as the games I mentioned but lore-wise, it's akin to GoW and that game was based on Greek Mythology which is known east to west. The same cannot be said with Journey to the West. Surely Sun Wu Kong is popular in contemporary media, but the novel itself not so. The animations helped tremendously, but did not fully communicate to players the in-game lore. This game is very unlike ER where the overworld lore is new, and so much like Tolkien's world, the lore of ER can be kept cryptic allowing the community to speculate and for the lore to mature over time. Black Myth Wukong should have at least communicated the basic story elements of the Journey to the West novel on which the in-game lore was made. 9.8/10 - the 0.2 being the story-telling.

Handsdown 2022's GOTY!!

A beautiful, innovative, and artistic world. With some caveats of course, but caveats that were solved through mods the devs otherwise wouldn't make themselves. Overall 10/10.

Moba game no other game can match.
