Black Myth: Wukong Xbox Version Rated by ESRB

Black Myth: Wukong has been a huge success, and those who had access to a PlayStation 5 or PC were able to play the hit game. In previous reports, Black Myth: Wukong was known as the top-grossing game across six markets and is set to be getting a DLC, which is slated for early 2025.

The information given to the audience about why the delays were happening was quite vague, with Microsoft declining to provide much information about the situation.

It's unlikely it'll sell the amount it's currently sold on PlayStation and PC, as Xbox seems to be the less commonly chosen platform.
