Wukong broke Steam records hours after its release

It has very high sales and play numbers as the most popular video game.

We see the perfect example that Twitter does not reflect our world. Game Science’s action role-playing game Black Myth Wukong is causing controversy and unrest. But the numbers speak for themselves.

Black Myth Wukong has been a popular Steam game for a while, so its launch was expected to be loud. It happened tonight at 4:00 on consoles and PC. We dethroned Cyberpunk 2077 and made Valve’s platform history in hours.

Black Myth Wukong is Steam’s most played game as of this writing. The peak was 1,443,570 players three hours ago, and SteamDB reports 1,428,941 concurrent players. Those numbers are insane.

It’s better-selling than PUBG and Baldur’s Gate 3 and the most played game on the platform, ahead of Counter Strike 2, Dota 2, and GTA V. Why not make history right? Black Myth Wukong pre-loads on Steam exceeded Cyberpunk 2077’s 51TB in 2020 with 53TB. It broke all the ceilings and more. Big success.

Picture of the podium. Look at SteamDB data. Lost Ark (1.3 million concurrent players), Counter-Strike 2 (1.8 million), Palworld (2.1 million), Black Myth Wukong (2.2 million), and PUBG (3.2 million) are Steam’s top five games.

Why is Black Myth Wukong? Game The 16th-century book Journey to the West inspired Science to create this game. One of the best Chinese novels. Don Quixote is to Spain what Journey to the West is to China. We play as Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, and fight enemies and bosses. It’s a mix of action RPG and fantasy with Souls that’s famous in video game history.

Black Myth: Wukong is Steam’s best-selling game and most-played single-player game. Cyberpunk 2077 set the record in 2020 with 1,054,388 players, but Black Myth: Wukong broke it in hours.

Black Myth: Wukong, announced in 2020, was released for PlayStation 5 and PC on August 20. Xbox Series X/S fans were disappointed when Game Science announced two months before launch that Black Myth: Wukong had been delayed. Game Science says Black Myth: Wukong’s Xbox release date is unknown because the game didn’t meet their standards on Microsoft’s current consoles.

As expected, Black Myth: Wukong is breaking Steam records due to its mostly positive reviews. Black Myth: Wukong became one of Steam’s most-played games in less than 24 hours, peaking at 1,443,570 concurrent players, according to SteamDB. The number of players playing Black Myth: Wukong is higher than Valve’s other hits like Counter-Strike 2 and Dota 2.

While Palworld has seen much larger player count spikes than Black Myth: Wukong, this record is even more impressive considering that this is a single-player, story-driven game. Black Myth: Wukong may never overtake PUBG:

Battlegrounds, but it’s broken the single-player game peak for the first time in four years. Cyberpunk 2077 held the record, but Black Myth: Wukong beat it with 389,182 concurrent players.

It’s unknown how many PlayStation 5 players the game has, but if it’s like Steam, Game Science has a huge hit. Black Myth: Wukong’s strange streamer restrictions have stirred up controversy. Black Myth: Wukong is shaping up to be one of 2024’s biggest games despite player criticism of these restrictions.
