Black Myth Wukong Now Surpasses 30 Million Copies Sold Worldwide Today

Black Myth: Wukong Achieves Monumental Sales Success, Surpassing 30 Million Copies Worldwide Nearly two years after its initial release, Black Myth: Wukong continues to demonstrate its significant commercial impact. A recent report from China's Xinhua News Agency Research Institute indicates that the action RPG, inspired by Chinese mythology, has sold over 30 million copies globally. This milestone positions Black Myth: Wukong among the fastest-selling games in modern gaming history. The report, as shared by the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League of China, highlights that more than half of these sales originated outside of China, with over 15 million copies sold across Western and Asian markets. This remarkable performance comes from a new intellectual property developed by a Chinese studio, achieved in a gaming industry often dominated by American, Japanese, and European franchises.

Black Myth Wukong Shatters Sales Records in Under Two Years

The speed at which Black Myth: Wukong has reached this milestone is particularly noteworthy. For comparison, Elden Ring took approximately three years to reach 30 million copies sold, while Cyberpunk 2077 required nearly five years to surpass 35 million. Black Myth: Wukong has achieved its 30 million sales mark in less than two years, solidifying its status as one of the biggest commercial successes of this generation. This substantial success provides Game Science with a strong foundation for future endeavors. The studio has already announced Black Myth: Zhong Kui, the next installment in their series drawing inspiration from Chinese legends. While still in the early stages of development, this announcement clearly establishes Black Myth as a significant franchise. Black Myth: Wukong also previously earned the TGA Players' Choice award.
