Black Myth: Wukong Update 1.0.9.15179 Makes Balance Changes and Fixes Bugs

Black Myth: Wukong developer Game Science has released a new update for the record-breaking action game that makes a number of balance changes and fixes bugs.

Black Myth: Wukong update 1.0.9.15179, which weighs in at approximately 1.7GB, may cause problems with installed mods, Game Science warned in a post on Steam. “We recommend uninstalling the installed mods and verifying the integrity of the game files before restarting the game,” the developer added.

That’s enough to put Black Myth: Wukong up there with Grand Theft Auto 5 and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 as one of the fastest-selling games of all time, and is an astonishing return for a game that had a reported budget of $70 million over six years of development.

While you’re here, IGN has plenty more Black Myth: Wukong guides to help you out, including Essential Tips and Tricks, Things Black Myth: Wukong Doesn't Tell You, and our Boss List and Guides.

IGN’s Black Myth: Wukong review returned an 8/10. We said: “Despite some frustrating technical issues, Black Myth: Wukong is a great action game with fantastic combat, exciting bosses, tantalizing secrets, and a beautiful world.”

Last month, IGN verified an email sent from the Black Myth: Wukong marketing team at Hero Games that told content creators who were granted a Steam key that they must not include “feminist propaganda” or use what are called “trigger words” such as COVID-19 in their coverage. At the
