@@marvinfok65 They took many photos, and use special software to scan those photos, and then draw the fine details based on that. So everything looks so real because they are real.
The devs are standing on the shoulders of the giants. Journey to the West was literally dubbed one of the four great literature masterpieces in ancient China, another of which many western audiences are more familiar with - Romance of the Three Kingdoms. That's a major reason they have such mind blowing monster designs, many of them based on the novel. The producer / CEO, along with some other core members, were veterans at Tencent. He was the creative director of a Chinese MMORPG similarly inspired by the monkey king, before he struck out on his own to start GameScience in 2014. This game blew a huge storm in China, because not only it could be the first triple A game in the country (and thus, possibly changing the industry forever), it also blew international competition out of the water in terms of production. I have my reservations, simply because 1. these are just teasers and 2. even if what we see here are largely representative of the final product, production value does not automatically equate to a good game. Everything we have seen so far are curated linear action sequences. The superior technicalities and classic source material that the devs seem to be trying to sell, does not automatically make this a good game. Just some food for thought here.
@@ckd5098 they probably don't. Through they could have their own interpretation for the mythology, like many Japanese/Korean mythologies which were inspired or originated from China, one clear example would be that of the nine tailed fox lady.
If you are looking for a good STORY in a game...this story (Journey to the West) is over 400 years old, and is one of the most legendary pieces of folklore ever written
1st for translation, the reason why subtitle's missed is probably that the two pieces are in-game ones and the game version is in Chinese. The former piece of 吃斋念佛，诵经打坐... was from the local caretaker, the odd birdman, laughing at wukong's reason for coming here to seek something precious ('that thing' he said), and said that since you were risking your life, I would just lead the way. The latter piece was 既见未来，为何不拜, from the fake Maitreya Buddha meaning that why don't you bow down to me buddha of the future, very arrogant. The narrator was also the fake buddha, telling his deceiving theory. (The subtitle translation even used some classical English, but the 'he's got it all wrong' was much too elegant. The actual translation for 放屁 is BULLSHIT) 2nd for the bosses, the GC announces that there will be 130 kinds of monsters and demons in the game, hoping the developers can work them out 3rd for the background, the story of the game is adapted from the original novel and may be very different, but reading the novel and watching the 1986 version TV series Journey to the West will certainly help a lot, especially with the mysterious elements, scenes, and demons. The TV series may seem outdated in picture quality or props, but the performance and music are excellent. Pay attention to the opening and ending songs. 4th for information in the description section, the story is set in the 6th century, Tang Dynasty, and it was the novel written in the 16th century as a gather of folklores and Wu Cheng'en's creation. 5th for the scenes, many scenes and sculptures in the trailers are actually fantastic restorations of real-life scenes in China. Searching Dazu Rock Carvings and Xiaoxitian Temple/Little Western Paradise for instance. 6th search 'suona唢呐' the musical instrument, find some masters' play, and you will thank me 7th for your cool Tshirt
From what has been shown so far, I really want to play this game. Even if the game isn't as good as show. Don't get me wrong, I want it to be a quality product. One that is on par with, if not above, it's trailers. To see how Chinese mythology is represented in this game would be a joy to experience. While I know Black Myth: Wukong won't be released anytime soon, I want the Devs to know they have an excellent Tilte. I am looking forward to it's release.
Likewise Tim. From what I've seen, the gameplay is pure. While it may end up falling short of graphical standards, I will keep faith that Black Myth: Wukong will surpass our expectations once the game is finally released. To experience this Chinese mythology at game-breaking standards would be a dream, and I am looking forward to the release as well. Hopefully, the developers understand that they have one of the most anticipated Tilte's out there right now, and they use every bit of courage to deliver what this game is so daringly promising. I hope you and your family are well, and that we will soon, one day, be able to hold Black Myth: Wukong in our hands.
1:32 "Yours is a pathetic quest" Most of the dialogue in this new trailer appear to be lines spoken by various demons / minor deities taunting and insulting Wukong as they become obstacles in his literal westward journey. Interestingly, at this particular timestamp, the speaker also addresses the rest of the party - Tripitaka, Sandy, Pigsy - which is why he mentions "you" four different times. But I think none of the trailers have showcased these other partymembers yet?? I'm excited for their eventual reveal!
if I am not mistaken, I think we were able to see a small glimpse of pigsy in the first trailer for this game. It was a very quick glance as wukong were using the vines to move around the terrain in a cutscene. Though this story isn't exactly about the same wukong whom travelled with the party, I hope that somehow they are on the story to since Pigsy and Sandy have their own personality that adds to the storyline. Pigsy being flirtatious, Sandy whom is straightforward and Tripitaka as the kindest soul restraining and teaching the monkey king.
As a person who has learned Shaolin White Crane Kung Fu, I super super respect what has been down here. I am sooooo Impressed! This for me is an instant buy!
Exactly, Japanese did some Asian dragons in their games, but nothing like this. The dragons should be like swim but not hover in the sky. Only Chinese know how their dragons move.
@@williamwu205 "The Real Sun Wukong"? As far as I know, they're both works of fiction. Like Marvel's Thor, vs the Nordic god Thor. Neither one is real, so neither is more valid than the other. Am I wrong? Was there a real Monkey King?
@@kewlztertc5386 The only real figures in The Journey to The West are Tang San Zang and some other historical figures like Emperor Tang Tai Zong and Chancellor Weizheng.
When game creators actually care about their coding and engines. We get this… epic… I think when I was QA testing other games the issues I always found with them is the environment. Collision issues, portaling, culling, scripting issues, pathing issues and stuck spots. If you have a solid environment that’s half the battle thank you for this preview
"Does not represent the final look of the game." A statement I've ignored too many times that's caused my expectations to be way too high. I wonder what it will actually look like?
@@MiZoW They even laid out the specs for the PC version. As for consoles, that's up to the hardware. Market forces discourage the Chinese from false advertising when it comes to games, because being deceiving will destroy any chance of real sales for them. They do not have the luxury to behave like EA. Genshin, for example, like it or hate it delivered exactly what it promised and has made over 1 billion in 6 months on mobile sales alone. Of course, once the Chinese have been successful for a decade or two with a long lasting record THEN I expect them to emulate all the shady practices unless the increased global competition keeps everyone at least minimally honest
I remember when Sleeping Dogs dropped a DLC for The Monkey King Skin. I said to myself, man I wish someone would make a full game based on him. Well here we are and I am stoked. I'd also like to add that the combo potential from this alone is staggering
@ESO the Chinese mythology is Called the journey to the west The creatures are All Illustrated Incredibly specific to fit the book and mythological creatures and its Incredible. Check out the story you can learn so much it's a Wacky story but it's the most unique thing I have ever read in my life it's truly a UNIQUE experience
I'm talking about how similar the design of this interpretation of wu is to league, you can even see the inspiration for his teleporting dodge where he leaves a clone behind and his q ability in the gameplay.
the dragon in the trailer will become the horse that Wu Kong's master rides during their quest to find the scripture. The staff that Wu Kong wields was taken from the Dragon's father (aka Eastern Sea Dragon King), The story is based off 1 of the 4 classic novels from Chinese History
I saw this part where the staff is dragging in the snow but there is no path that actually shows that it drags, i guess thats one that they will have to pay attention to
The mythos of Sun Wukong is so incredible. His abailities and powers are insane. I highly recommend reading "Journey to the West". It's one of the better mythological stories out there. I could go into his powers, but it would take hours to write, so just read the book.
for none native Chinese speaker, there are three meaning of that yellow robe guy said (@): 既见未来，为何不拜？these words could be translate to: why dont you kneel and worship since you are seeing future? 1、he is Maitreya Buddha who is the buddha of future, so Wukong is actually seeing future when he meet him, it is time to kneel. (there is also someone says yellow robe guy is fake Maitreya buddha, because Maitreya Buddha would never say such dark words to aganist Buddha) 2、these words are also message to players: your are seeing future game, it is time to kneel and worship. 3、拜 means kneel and worship in Chinese, it also sounds like "buy", it means you are seeing the game of future, it is time to buy!
in the actual novel, a disciple of Maitreya Buddha, steals some magic artifacts and goes to earth and becomes a demon known as "Yellow Brows Great King " and pretends to be buddha and his minions, various buddhas and gods.. this is likely who this guy in the video is
If game play is half as good as it looks it will be a game of the year contender on my opinion. I mean the story is there and it looks beautiful. Just hope it's not a cyberpunk situation. Where they show you gold and give you shit.
in fact, according to Journey to the West，there is 81 troubles (or I should say disasters?) in the journey, so if game science want, theoretically，they can design 81 bossess or more than that, and since there are so many amazing stories in journey to the west, so if they make this game great and earn enough money, they can make as many wukong games as they want. Then that will become a epic series, and they have to make several games to explain what they want to tell, cause Journey to the west is really a complex story.
The lighting on the health seems to be a debuff or stagger effect on the opponent. I'm guessing since there is no visible effect on the screen for a stun or stagger or slowdown, it seems to be a debuff on damage from being electrocuted by the lightning attacks.
5:40 the man bird ( local deity of the earth, a very low ranking god)： praying, contemplating and fasting as usual, but who can really peace and clear like water? you see, you have fought ferocious in this snowstorm, you must be after "that thing"... huh~! 5:58 right before your arrival, through my divination, guess what i got from the script? "be still rather than action. Gifted but no longevity" 6:12 if you are really looking for death, I won't stop you I, your humble God of Earth of this Little West (the place they are in now, a fake Buddha temple), greeting the chosen one
The translation of the part that doesn't have translation which is “consuming meat and thinking of the buddha, chanting Buddhist scripture meanwhile sit in meditation to meditate. How many r there who actually put their head down and act honorable, Look at you. In this heavy Blizzard and still work ur butt off. You must after "It". Before you came which is i looked into the fortune of urs. Wanna take a guess on what it says? "shouldn't make a move but instead of making one, talented but not blessed with long life. If you wanna die and i won't stop you. Little Western heaven land demigod here to great the "Chosen One". Done! sign~i did my best.
honestly in youtube standard display and quality of frame rate per second was awful unless you need PS5 console and with OLED display monitor with 200hz that you can see through originally how awesome this graphic was made
I can't wait to play this game. It's about time a new ip that looks amazing, not a part 2 or a remake. They made something new and amazing. Hopefully it don't come out broke like every other game anymore.
Regarding the part of the video that has no English subtitles: （copied） ----------------The bird part----------------- 吃斋念佛，诵经打坐 - Be vegetarian and recite Buddha, chant sutras and meditate 又有几个真的心如止水，清净无为 - How many of them (the gods in Chinese mythology) really settle their minds as still water, keep themselves pure and inactive? 你看看你 - Just look at yourself 这大风大雪的，还要这么拼命 - Still torture yourself in such a big blizzard 一定也是为了那个玩意儿 - Must be for that thing 你来之前，我算过一卦 - Before you came, I did divination in Gossip 你猜猜写的是啥？ - Guess what it shows? 动不如静，有才无命 - Quietness is better than movement, talent without destiny 既要送死，也不拦你 - If you seek to die, then I won't stop you 小西天土地，在此恭迎天命人 - Xiaoxitian Tudi, here to welcome the Tianming ren (Birdhead guy is actually the same kind of gods as the 13-minute demo version of the little Potato-head guy. The area of he is in charge of is Xiaoleiyin Temple. It comes from a place in the 56th chapter of the original Journey to the West. Most of the scenes in this preview are also based mainly here. But this Birdhead god's attitude is obviously indifferent to the other in comparison with the 13-minute version, and even advises the monkey to stay on track and not resist to gods. ) ----------------The Buddha part------------- 既见未来，为何不拜 - Now you seen the future, why don't you bow down! (Generally speaking, this is related to another literary work about Journey to the West, ‘the biography of Wukong’，don’t know if there is an English version, but strongly recommended it) PS.the end title is “斗罢艰险又出发” which mean Overcome the difficulties and obstacles and set off again, which is a lyric from the theme song of the Chinese Journey to the West TV series. (Taken from someone else's comment from another video) The "no easy way out" was a reference to the Journey To The West, in the story that golden thing is Buddha's Cymbal, Wokung got trapped under it at this very location, and it was the Master of Star Mansion Kang-Gold-Dragon saved Wokung... But in the game setting that Master of Star Mansion Kang-Gold-Dragon has already fallen (That dragon the monkey fought over the frozen lake), so this time no one will come to the monkey's rescue...
random fact, that's probably not wukong that's being played. there's a theory floating around that it's actually sun wukong's doppleganger, the six-eared macaque, since in the first trailer, the killing blow on the wolf demon attempted by the "player wukong" was stopped by another "wukong", but this one, among other things, had a staff with gold bands, whereas the player wukong's staff does not. the other wukong's staff also has the name written on it, the Ruyi Jingu Bang. also, you should indeed read the story of journey to the west
I think the founders are a bit of a perfectionist after watching one of their interviews so I feel like its safe to say the final product should be as amazing. The guy is like "This is not good enough" at nit picks at the game. LOL so hopefully their OCD will help XD
I think it comes from the tale of Gilgamesh from around 2000 BC, which is a lot older than Journey to the West. But the whole idea of the Hero's Journey is that's deeply archetypal, meaning several cultures across the world built up this structure independent of each other.
To me it never mattered whether or not I sucked at Soulsborne games, or Nioh 1 & 2, it’s just about having fun creating a character, build, and getting through the game, show the gameplay because you’re having fun bro!
This is messing with me so much, does the sound that plays at 6:44 sound familiar to anyone? It sounds so familiar, but I can't place where I heard it from Edit: oh my god, it's the Horkos Pharmakos execution in For Honor

This game looks so good... Actually looking forward to this.
I Just uploaded a full video clip with complete English subtitles: conversation, lyrics, annotations. In case anyone needs more info from it. Enjoy.
Reminds me of the time when ninja Gaiden came out on X-box , what a hard game it was
this looks awesome i really hope they incorporate the ghost in the shell music style at 10:00 into the game
you're right it does have that GITS intro vibe. That title card music at 11:27 got me fucking HYPED
That snow is PRETTY COOL!
Holy fuck, that looks absolutely incredible.
Appropriate place for a fight against a Lung Dragon. They're called river guardians for a reason and it might be pissed that the river is frozen over.
The mythos of Sun Wukong is so incredible. His abailities and powers are insane. I highly recommend reading "Journey to the West". It's one of the better mythological stories out there. I could go into his powers, but it would take hours to write, so just read the book.
Looks fantastic. Thank you so much for sharing. Sick shirt also!
for none native Chinese speaker, there are three meaning of that yellow robe guy said (@): 既见未来，为何不拜？these words could be translate to: why dont you kneel and worship since you are seeing future? 1、he is Maitreya Buddha who is the buddha of future, so Wukong is actually seeing future when he meet him, it is time to kneel. (there is also someone says yellow robe guy is fake Maitreya buddha, because Maitreya Buddha would never say such dark words to aganist Buddha) 2、these words are also message to players: your are seeing future game, it is time to kneel and worship. 3、拜 means kneel and worship in Chinese, it also sounds like "buy", it means you are seeing the game of future, it is time to buy!
in the actual novel, a disciple of Maitreya Buddha, steals some magic artifacts and goes to earth and becomes a demon known as "Yellow Brows Great King " and pretends to be buddha and his minions, various buddhas and gods.. this is likely who this guy in the video is
If game play is half as good as it looks it will be a game of the year contender on my opinion. I mean the story is there and it looks beautiful.
Just hope it's not a cyberpunk situation. Where they show you gold and give you shit.
Gold plated shit, that is actually a great analogy for CP. It looks great on the surface, the rest is awful.
Wow looks incredible. Monkey king character is awesome too
in fact, according to Journey to the West，there is 81 troubles (or I should say disasters?) in the journey, so if game science want, theoretically，they can design 81 bossess or more than that, and since there are so many amazing stories in journey to the west, so if they make this game great and earn enough money, they can make as many wukong games as they want. Then that will become a epic series, and they have to make several games to explain what they want to tell, cause Journey to the west is really a complex story.
Someone should count all the times ESO said "Oh, my God" in this video.
3 Long years for a once in a life time game experience.
A dope game and dope real time game graphics.
I can't wait for this mega hit #1
The lighting on the health seems to be a debuff or stagger effect on the opponent. I'm guessing since there is no visible effect on the screen for a stun or stagger or slowdown, it seems to be a debuff on damage from being electrocuted by the lightning attacks.
they might have not implemented the intended effects yet.
5:40
the man bird ( local deity of the earth, a very low ranking god)：
praying, contemplating and fasting as usual,
but who can really peace and clear like water?
you see, you have fought ferocious in this snowstorm,
you must be after "that thing"...
huh~!
5:58
right before your arrival,
through my divination, guess what i got from the script?
"be still rather than action. Gifted but no longevity"
6:12
if you are really looking for death, I won't stop you
I, your humble God of Earth of this Little West (the place they are in now, a fake Buddha temple), greeting the chosen one
Been waiting for this!!!
It looks really pretty and blood born thym for Chinese lore is sick
The translation of the part that doesn't have translation which is “consuming meat and thinking of the buddha, chanting Buddhist scripture meanwhile sit in meditation to meditate. How many r there who actually put their head down and act honorable, Look at you. In this heavy Blizzard and still work ur butt off. You must after "It". Before you came which is i looked into the fortune of urs. Wanna take a guess on what it says? "shouldn't make a move but instead of making one, talented but not blessed with long life. If you wanna die and i won't stop you. Little Western heaven land demigod here to great the "Chosen One". Done! sign~i did my best.
Bruuhhhhhh this looks incredible very from software inspired 😍😍
honestly in youtube standard display and quality of frame rate per second was awful unless you need PS5 console and with OLED display monitor with 200hz that you can see through originally how awesome this graphic was made
No one comments on how smooth this dude transition into his T-shirt sale
I believe the red head bird man has something to do with Tengu
Journey To The West novel in Amzaon
Cannot wait for it!
Dark Souls + Journey to the West? Color me intrigued…
I recall that the developers denied the soul-like guess, maybe God of War has a higher possibility
compare to the beauty graph the backgroud history(history of Chinese myth and Buddhism history) is a plenty work
That finisher on the dragon was insane!!!
You get to play as the Monkey King, i so want to play this 6 months after they release it and fixes all the bugs
I chuckled a bit when he made the waiting for elder scroll 6 joke. 😆
I need this game in my life
I can't wait to play this game. It's about time a new ip that looks amazing, not a part 2 or a remake. They made something new and amazing. Hopefully it don't come out broke like every other game anymore.
just rendering the snow would be enough to blow up my PC
Take a shot every time he says OMG
Looks great Man
Regarding the part of the video that has no English subtitles: （copied）
----------------The bird part-----------------
吃斋念佛，诵经打坐 - Be vegetarian and recite Buddha, chant sutras and meditate
又有几个真的心如止水，清净无为 - How many of them (the gods in Chinese mythology) really settle their minds as still water, keep themselves pure and inactive?
你看看你 - Just look at yourself
这大风大雪的，还要这么拼命 - Still torture yourself in such a big blizzard
一定也是为了那个玩意儿 - Must be for that thing
你来之前，我算过一卦 - Before you came, I did divination in Gossip
你猜猜写的是啥？ - Guess what it shows?
动不如静，有才无命 - Quietness is better than movement, talent without destiny
既要送死，也不拦你 - If you seek to die, then I won't stop you
小西天土地，在此恭迎天命人 - Xiaoxitian Tudi, here to welcome the Tianming ren
(Birdhead guy is actually the same kind of gods as the 13-minute demo version of the little Potato-head guy. The area of he is in charge of is Xiaoleiyin Temple. It comes from a place in the 56th chapter of the original Journey to the West. Most of the scenes in this preview are also based mainly here. But this Birdhead god's attitude is obviously indifferent to the other in comparison with the 13-minute version, and even advises the monkey to stay on track and not resist to gods. )
----------------The Buddha part-------------
既见未来，为何不拜 - Now you seen the future, why don't you bow down!
(Generally speaking, this is related to another literary work about Journey to the West, ‘the biography of Wukong’，don’t know if there is an English version, but strongly recommended it)
PS.the end title is “斗罢艰险又出发” which mean Overcome the difficulties and obstacles and set off again, which is a lyric from the theme song of the Chinese Journey to the West TV series.
(Taken from someone else's comment from another video) The "no easy way out" was a reference to the Journey To The West, in the story that golden thing is Buddha's Cymbal, Wokung got trapped under it at this very location, and it was the Master of Star Mansion Kang-Gold-Dragon saved Wokung... But in the game setting that Master of Star Mansion Kang-Gold-Dragon has already fallen (That dragon the monkey fought over the frozen lake), so this time no one will come to the monkey's rescue...
yes
this is a what I expect of Skyrim 6
Holy Moly!!! Play this game! I am excited to myself if it delivers.
random fact, that's probably not wukong that's being played. there's a theory floating around that it's actually sun wukong's doppleganger, the six-eared macaque, since in the first trailer, the killing blow on the wolf demon attempted by the "player wukong" was stopped by another "wukong", but this one, among other things, had a staff with gold bands, whereas the player wukong's staff does not. the other wukong's staff also has the name written on it, the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
also, you should indeed read the story of journey to the west
I think the founders are a bit of a perfectionist after watching one of their interviews so I feel like its safe to say the final product should be as amazing. The guy is like "This is not good enough" at nit picks at the game. LOL so hopefully their OCD will help XD
Wow this game looks insane dude, want to see more of the game lore 👌🏼
Just dont become a new cyberpunk 2077 and we are fine! Keeping my composure to not get dissapointed with another game
That's what I worry about, AAA game tragedy
中国制造，你们放心就行了
Drinking game: A shot every time Danny says " Oh My Gaaawd"
You are by far the most attention to detail youtuber.
I know you have elder scrolls 6 Danny. Give it to me🤨
This is crazy beyond goood
From my understanding the plot concept of the “hero’s journey” is taken from Journey to the West, right?
I think it comes from the tale of Gilgamesh from around 2000 BC, which is a lot older than Journey to the West. But the whole idea of the Hero's Journey is that's deeply archetypal, meaning several cultures across the world built up this structure independent of each other.
To me it never mattered whether or not I sucked at Soulsborne games, or Nioh 1 & 2, it’s just about having fun creating a character, build, and getting through the game, show the gameplay because you’re having fun bro!
The new Jade Empire!
European and American game makers cannot understand Chinese culture. "Black Myth" is produced by the Chinese team, allowing you to see the difference
Amazing graphics. Looks like it will be great fun to play.
dark souls looks like pixel art now
This looks too good to be true!! Getting my hopes up
This is messing with me so much, does the sound that plays at 6:44 sound familiar to anyone? It sounds so familiar, but I can't place where I heard it from
Edit: oh my god, it's the Horkos Pharmakos execution in For Honor
Title: 13 minutes
Reality: 12 minutes 44 seconds
Great vid looks sick f and the trailer was good good the graphics and the combat and the combo's and the way the bosses all of it was so clean looks as hard as dark soles
Stunning!!! 😍
Black myth
Lore
Wu Kong's journey to the west
Lost his memory and trying to recover his lost memory 🤔
Finally get to play as the og goku
What PC do we need for Unreal Engine 5??? And how big are gonna be the games? o.0
Did you watch the 2 earlier trailers? Seems that you don't know that there is 2 earlier trailers.
