So what does this mean for us, diehard fans of the genre? Is this a sign of a long-term future for the Black Myth franchise? And most importantly, what myths will we explore next? Let’s dive into these intriguing rumors to see the big picture that Game Science is nurturing!
Note: This is leaked information, not officially announced.
Black Myth: Wukong - Successfully opened a universe
With Black Myth : Wukong officially released and receiving positive feedback, Game Science has proven its ability to create a high-quality action role-playing game. This success comes not only from the eye-catching gameplay but also from the beautiful graphics, especially the re-creation of the image of Sun Wukong and the world of Journey to the West in a new way. And now, rumors of a long-term series have been reinforced by the appearance of the Black Myth : Zhong Kui trailer at Gamescom 2025.
This event confirmed that Black Myth does not revolve around Sun Wukong alone. On the contrary, it will be a vast universe where gods and monsters from Chinese mythology coexist. The fact that up to 7 different names have been registered for copyright, including Black Myth : Jiang Ziya, Black Myth : Xiao Qian, Black Myth : Da Huang, Black Myth : Shan Hai and Black Myth : Sou Shen, shows that Game Science's ambition is far beyond what we can imagine.
Other sources say the titles have been registered from 2020-2022 with Wukong being the first game to launch.
Game Science's Long-Term Vision for Black Myth
The leaked names are not just random. They are all iconic characters and stories in Chinese mythology. Black Myth : Zhong Kui is about the demon-slayer god, Black Myth : Jiang Ziya may be related to Fengshen Yanyi, and Black Myth : Shan Hai may explore strange creatures in Shan Hai Jing. This shows that Game Science has a very clear development roadmap.
Instead of focusing solely on expanding the story of Sun Wukong, Game Science is building a connected universe where characters and stories intertwine. This is a bold and ambitious approach, similar to the way cinematic universes like Marvel or DC have done. If successful, Black Myth will not only be a game series but also a cultural heritage, bringing Chinese mythology closer to gamers around the world. Having such a large number of games will help the Black Myth brand stand firm and develop for many years to come.
