Summary

  • Black Myth: Wukong's new update features Thai language support on all versions.
  • The update also fixes an issue with Varied Combos.
  • The game is expected to get an expansion at some point down the line.

Black Myth: Wukong has released a new update for April 2025 that gamers can download right now. Black Myth: Wukong was a massive sales success in 2024, smashing records and quickly establishing itself as one of the year's biggest games. Considering the dizzying success Black Myth: Wukong has enjoyed since launch, Game Science could have gotten away with resting on its laurels. Instead, the studio has continued to release new updates for the game.

Black Myth: Wukong updates vary greatly in scope. Most of the updates have been focused on fixing bugs and addressing fan feedback, but others have added more substantial content. Late last year, a big Black Myth: Wukong update added a boss rush mode, maps for the game's sometimes difficult to navigate stages, and new armor. The latest Black Myth: Wukong update doesn't add any major new content, but it should still be appreciated by fans.

Black Myth Wukong: Best Defensive Builds To Try

Players who subscribe to the idea that an effective offense incorporates a great defense in Black Myth: Wukong may want to try the following builds.

The new Black Myth: Wukong update for April 2025 has added Thai language support across all versions and, for PC gamers, integrated Nvidia DLSS 4.0 and Intel XeSS 2.0. The new update also contains a single bug fix, addressing an issue where the Destined One would not be able to perform the second move of a Varied Combo if the first move was followed by various actions. It's not the biggest update Black Myth: Wukong has ever received, but the April 2025 patch should still result in a smoother experience for fans of the game.

Black Myth: Wukong fans can expect more updates for the game in the future. In fact, it's been confirmed that Black Myth: Wukong has a DLC expansion in the works. The presumably paid DLC will likely add new story content, bosses, and more for players to check out, though concrete information on what all it will entail has yet to be revealed at the time of this writing.

In the meantime, fans can also expect Black Myth: Wukong to eventually make its way to other platforms. Black Myth: Wukong is planned for Xbox, though that version of the game does not have a release date just yet. More information on the Xbox port and the game's first major expansion should come to light in the months ahead.
