Black Myth: Wukong is one of the most anticipated games of 2024. So, today’s news may displease some who were looking forward to it. Game Science has updated the game’s Steam store page, revealing that it will be using the Denuvo anti-tamper tech.
Game Science will self-publish the game on PC. So, it will be interesting to see whether – and if – it will remove Denuvo after one or two years.
Black Myth Wukong is a third-person action game that will be powered by Unreal Engine 5. The game will support full Ray Tracing on the PC, so expect this to be a really GPU-heavy title. PC gamers can expect ray-traced Global Illumination, Shadows and Reflections. Moreover, the game will support both NVIDIA DLSS 3.5 Frame Generation and Ray Reconstruction.
Yesterday, the devs shared the translated PC system requirements. These PC requirements are WITH DLSS/FSR/XeSS. And, although they did not specify the mode they used, we can assume that it was the Performance Mode.
So, to get a smooth experience at 4K with DLSS and Ray Tracing, you’ll need an Intel Core i7 9700 or an AMD Ryzen 5 5500 with 32GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Super.
In a way, these PC requirements seem similar to those of another UE5 game, Hellblade 2. In Hellblade 2, our NVIDIA RTX 4090 could not push 60fps at native resolution. To get framerates over 60fps at all times, we had to either enable DLSS 3 Frame Generation or DLSS 3 Super Resolution. And, from the looks of it, this will be the case and in Black Myth: Wukong.
Game Science will release Black Myth: Wukong on August 20th.
