Gotta wonder about timing, right? Like, wow, Black Myth: Wukong lands on Xbox Series X|S exactly one year after dropping on PlayStation and PC—August 20, 2025. Coincidence? Sure… if you believe in that kinda thing.
So, here’s the thing: Microsoft and the game’s devs have been tiptoeing around with words, playing nice but… yeah, the back and forth didn’t make much sense. Confusing? Totally.
Oh, and those delays! Remember in June 2024, when Microsoft was all like, “We’re stoked for the Xbox debut!” and yet, not a peep about any deals with others? Sounds like a bad cover band trying to play it cool. Anyway—uh, where was I? Oh, right.
Picture this: Game Science’s Feng Ji saying it’ll take “years” for the Series S to shine. Years?! Really? I dunno, just sounds fishy, doesn’t it?
Then you’ve got Phil Spencer saying he knows what’s up but won’t spill the beans. Forbes and IGN poked around too, swearing there’s a hush-hush deal with Sony. Imagine the chaos behind closed doors.
Why Xbox decided to announce at 9:00 PM CST on some random Thursday beats me. What was up with that? Did a contract bell ring at that hour? I mean, who knows.
Is there a secret squirrel contract floating around, or did they actually spend a year optimizing? You tell me. Honestly, I’d love to hear if folks are buying any of this. Sound off below or anywhere you can find me—because this saga has my head spinning.
