Hey gamers! ๐ฎ Have you heard the big news? “Black Myth: Wukong”, an awesome new game from China, just won the Best Action Game at The Game Awards 2024! ๐ That’s like the Oscars for video games!
But wait, there’s more! It also got the Players’ Voice award, which is voted for by fans all around the world. ๐ How cool is that?
“Black Myth: Wukong” is inspired by an old Chinese story called “Journey to the West”. It’s about the Monkey King, a super cool character with magical powers. ๐ตโจ In the game, you get to explore ancient Chinese temples and landscapes that look so real, you’d think you’re actually there!
The game was developed by Game Science, and it took them six years to make it. That’s a long time, but it was totally worth it! When it was released on August 20th, it sold 4.5 million copies in just one day! ๐ฒ
But it’s not just about awesome graphics and fun gameplay. The creators wanted to share Chinese culture with the world. They included real Chinese music and designed the game levels based on 36 famous places in China, like the Jade Emperor Temple and the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple. ๐ฏ๐ถ
Feng Ji, the game’s producer, said, “Games allow players from all around the world to communicate, experience, and share joy.” And “Black Myth: Wukong” is definitely spreading joy everywhere!
Even though it didn’t win Game of the Year (that went to “Astro Bot”), it’s still a huge achievement for a game from China to be recognized globally. ๐
If you love action, adventure, and learning about new cultures, this game is a must-play. So grab your controllers and get ready for an epic journey! ๐ฎ๐
