Black Myth: Wukong minimum & recommended system requirements for PC

As a seasoned PC gamer with decades of experience under my belt, I’ve seen games come and go, some shining like a beacon of excellence, others fading into obscurity faster than you can say “minimum requirements.” With Black Myth: Wukong on the horizon, I find myself both excited and slightly concerned about the system specifications.


Gamers who are excited about playing Black Myth: Wukong on their PC should familiarize themselves with the necessary system specifications to guarantee a smooth gaming experience. Find the detailed specifications below to understand the potential game performance.

All PC system requirements

Minimum specifications

Components Requirements
Operating System Windows 10 64-bit

Additional Notes HDD Supported, SSD Recommended. The above specifications were tested with DLSS/FSR/XeSS enabled

It’s important to mention that while the given specifications supposedly were tested with DLSS, DLSS is not a feature supported by the NVIDIA card. On the other hand, the AMD card does have FSR, and both types of cards can utilize XeSS technology.

Looking at the impressive appearance of Black Myth: Wukong, it’s somewhat surprising to find that some of its specifications seem quite outdated. Specifically, the minimum required GPUs are approximately eight years old currently, whereas the suggested GPUs are just five years old as of now.

If your game isn’t using the frame generation software mentioned in these specifications, it might not perform optimally as expected.

As a fan, it’s disheartening to experience visual artifacts when using frame generation technologies such as DLSS/FSR/XeSS, even though their goal is to enhance the image quality. Regrettably, these artifacts can diminish the overall image clarity.

Let’s simply hold off playing the game until its launch, so we can determine if its performance is due to the developers relying on frame generation software or if they’re struggling with optimization.
