Cheers to a new year and new beginnings! Happy 2025!
Black Myth: Wukong arrived in 2024 to incredible success and has seemingly spawned some copycats as a result, with Nintendo Switch fans laughing as Wukong Sun: Black Legend hits the platform just last week.
Gamers online have called out the $7.99 Wukong Sun: Black Legend as a fairly blatant rip-off of Black Myth: Wukong, which isn't on Nintendo Switch itself. Not only is the name incredibly similar, but the promotional image could easily be mistaken for that of the actual game.
The similarities practically end there, however, as Wukong Sun: Black Legend is a side-scrolling platformer as opposed to Black Myth: Wukong's third-person action. It also requires a meagre 338 megabytes of storage space according to the Nintendo eShop page.
It's description doesn't allude to this seemingly more limited experience, promising "a chaotic world teeming with powerful monsters", "supercharged abilities and crazy fighting skills" and "captivating visuals with unforgettable storytelling".
"Seriously, this is not even subtle", one ResetEra user wrote of the similarities between Wukong Sun: Black Legend and Black Myth: Wukong. "Not even trying", wrote another. "Yeah, this seems like the kind of shovelware cashgrab someone would release", said a third.
