As a seasoned gamer with years of experience under my belt, I’ve seen my fair share of console exclusivity deals that left me feeling like a jilted lover. The latest rumor surrounding Black Myth: Wukong‘s absence on Xbox Series X|S has certainly piqued my curiosity.
It is believed that an issue related to memory leaks on Xbox Series S may have delayed Black Myth: Wukong from launching on Xbox Series X|S. However, recent reports indicate that there could be additional factors behind Game Science’s action RPG not being available on Microsoft’s console yet. Rumor has it that Sony holds an exclusivity agreement with the developer, which remains undisclosed.
According to both IGN and Forbes, rumors suggesting a technical problem preventing Black Myth: Wukong from launching simultaneously on Xbox and PS5 are unfounded. Instead, it appears Sony negotiated an arrangement for the game to debut as a timed exclusive on PlayStation, before potentially becoming available on Xbox at a later date. However, Game Science has maintained that they are simply focusing on optimizing the game for Xbox in their official statement.
Microsoft expressed enthusiasm for the upcoming release of Black Myth Wukong on Xbox Series X|S, collaborating with Game Science to bring it to their platforms. While they can’t disclose details about partnerships with other platform holders, they remain dedicated to making Xbox an exceptional gaming destination, with outstanding games serving as the core focus.
It seems neither Sony nor Game Science have responded to any exclusivity deal speculations. Many people, including myself, thought that the delay of Black Myth: Wukong on Xbox might be due to issues similar to those experienced with Baldur’s Gate 3’s delayed launch on Xbox. However, recent indications suggest this may not be the reason in this case.
We might anticipate playing Black Myth: Wukong on the Xbox Series X|S sometime in the future. If there’s an exclusivity deal involved, it could take a few months to a year for its release. Let’s hope for some clarity about this soon.
