Black Myth: Wukong’s launch is closer than ever, as the game is finally coming out in three days. Just yesterday, Game Science lifted its review embargo, leading to a solid Metacritic average for its debut title.

Ahead of the release, fans are still curious to learn more about Black Myth: Wukong. The team had yet to confirm how long Sun Wukong’s journey would last. Fortunately, the reviews seem to confirm that it lasts at least 40 hours.

Why it matters: The developer had previously commented that the team aimed for at least 15 hours of gameplay. Many found this length to be a bit too short and wondered whether the action RPG would justify its price.

As shared on Reddit, a reviewer from Bilibili revealed new information that hadn’t been shared by other journalists.

While the main story can be completed in 35-40 hours, Black Myth: Wukong is said to offer several more hours of gameplay for those looking to play the whole game. Adding the side content, players can expect about 70 hours of gameplay.

Moreover, 100% completion is said to take as long as 90 hours. Therefore, it seems Game Science underestimated the length of its upcoming action RPG, and completionists will certainly get their money’s worth.

Black Myth: Wukong became the best-selling title on Steam two weeks before its launch, so there is clearly a lot of excitement for this release. Fans will likely be glad to know that this title will offer a much more extensive experience than initially expected, increasing the buzz further.

According to reviews, Game Science offers a mostly linear experience, but there are still many secrets to be found. Some have yet to be discovered, so fans may have to wait for the community to get its hands on the game before 100% of the content is decrypted and made sense of.
