Black Myth: Wukong sells 10 million units in just three days

The newest action RPG game Black Myth: Wukong has taken the gaming world by storm, selling an incredible 10 million copies across all platforms in just three days. Since its launch on August 20, 2024, Black Myth: Wukong is already passing Hogwarts Legacy, Helldivers 2 and Elden Ring in unit sales, becoming one of the fastest-selling titles of all time.

The game has seen success not just in sales but also in the number of concurrent players across all platforms with 3 million.

Created by Game Science, Black Myth: Wukong is based on the classic Chinese novel “Journey to the West,” featuring Sun Wukong (aka The Monkey King). The game has amazed players with its breathtaking visuals, immersive gameplay, and compelling narrative. It has also emerged as a cultural sensation, especially in China, where it has gained widespread popularity.

According to Daniel Ahmad, Director of Research & Insights at Niko Partners, most players are playing the Steam version the most because “Steam is the leading platform by far due to the large skew towards Chinese players (who primarily play on PC).”
