Xbox owners, however, will have to wait longer.<\/p>\n<p>This is due to the game not meeting Game Science\u2019s \u201cquality standards\u201d, therefore needing some more time to cook in the oven.<\/p>\n<p>As of right now, there is no new release date for Xbox consoles. So, unfortunately, it\u2019s just a waiting game for when Black Myth: Wukong will be ready on those devices.<\/p>\n<h2>Black Myth: Wukong trailers<\/h2>\n<p>There have been quite a few different trailers for Black Myth: Wukong, so we\u2019ll just detail three in timeline order so you\u2019re able to get the full picture.<\/p>\n<p>The first trailer that we saw from the game was actually a massive gameplay reveal. This is pretty unheard of when it comes to trailers of any kind, so it was a great surprise, and one that really wowed gamers.<\/p>\n<p>The fast-paced action and Soulslike nature, definitely grabbed the attention of most, with the added layer of impressive visuals that looked \u2018next gen\u2019.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><iframe title=\"Black Myth: Wukong - 13 Minutes Official Gameplay Trailer\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/oRLhCxC886o?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>Next up, we\u2019ve got another lengthy trailer featuring a six minute cutscene, showing off Game Science\u2019s attention to the cinematic nature of the game.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><iframe title=\"Black\u00a0Myth:\u00a0Wukong\u00a06\u00a0Minutes\u00a0In-game\u00a0Cutscene\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AedjfaOlkPs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And finally, we have the release date trailer.

with this being said, the areas in the game are quite vast with various avenues to go down, so it\u2019s not like it is a very tight, level by level design you might expect of a standard single player
