The “one more thing” at this year’s Gamescom Opening Night Live was a surprise reveal from Chinese studio Game Science. The developer revealed its next game, and a follow-up to its 2024 title Black Myth: Wukong, called Black Myth: Zhong Kui. The new game, like its predecessor, will be an action-RPG developed in Unreal Engine 5.
According to what little information Game Science has thus far put out, the game is going to follow the story of Zhong Kui, a vanquisher of evil in East Asian myth. The studio describes the game thus: “The game will deliver distinctive experiences and gameplay features that push our limits, while also bringing fresh ideas and necessary changes to address past flaws and regrets.”
