Move over, Kratos—there’s a new gaming legend in town! Black Myth: Wukong, the action RPG inspired by China’s classic Journey to the West, has taken the world by storm. With 10 million copies sold in just three days and a historic Game of the Year nomination at #TGA2024, this game is rewriting the rules of storytelling.
But let’s talk about the real MVP: Guangzhi, the wolf monster who’s gone from ‘big bad’ to ‘best buddy’. In the original 16th-century novel, Guangzhi tries to murder Sun Wukong and Tang Sanzang. In the game? He’s your ride-or-die ally, dropping TikTok-worthy save-the-day moments with his transformation spells. No wonder ‘Guangzhi, save me!’ is trending everywhere!
Why the glow-up? Bilibili influencer and Shanghai Normal University prof Wang Hongzhi breaks it down in SPARK’s latest episode. This edutainment series mixes myth, gaming, and cultural analysis like a pro—think ‘Crash Course’ meets ‘Gen Z explainer’.
Whether you’re here for the lore, the memes, or just wanna understand why this game’s a cultural reset, Guangzhi’s journey proves old stories can get *very* new endings.
