Game Science studio, which exactly a year ago amazed the world gamer community with Black Myth: Wukong action game, unexpectedly announced its next game.

Here's What We Know

At the Opening Night Live show, Chinese developers presented Black Myth Zhong Kui.

The teaser looks incredibly cool and atmospheric, showing off over-the-top graphics, but it doesn't feature any gameplay footage, so it's hard to judge what the game will be like just yet.

So far, everything points to Black Myth Zhong Kui being an action-adventure game, much like Wukong, but its protagonist will be another character from Chinese legends, Zhong Kui, who is a deity who tames evil spirits.

As on ancient engravings, in the game he rides a huge tiger.

When We Can Expect It

Black Myth Zhong Kui release date and platform list are not yet specified, but let's remind that from the moment Black Myth: Wukong was announced it took four years before its release, probably this time the wait will be a little less.
