Chinese-made action RPG Black Myth: Wukong has cleaned up at this year's Steam awards, winning not just Game of the Year but two other categories in a community-voted awards event that only has 11 categories total.
In addition to Game of the Year Black Myth: Wukong has netted both the Best Game You Suck At and Outstanding Story-Rich Game awards.
That puts Black Myth: Wukong in a category all its own for most-winning in one year at the Steam Awards: Games like Cuphead, Baldur's Gate 3, and Red Dead Redemption 2 have only won two categories in one year in the past.
It's a pretty remarkable result of fan outpouring of love to round up that many people in what amounts to a popularity contest—the Steam Awards are decided by fan votes—though perhaps not a surprising one given that Black Myth: Wukong set the record for second-most people playing one Steam game at once and helped contribute to the most people online at once on Steam.
Perhaps that'll be enough to assuage the Black Myth developer Game Science boss' sadness over not winning at The Game Awards.
