Yesterday, 111 game titles developed by Chinese game companies passed approval by competent authorities to prepare for launch in the country’s market of billions of people. Which includes Dark Myth: Wukong (also known as Black Myth: Wukong). This information immediately entered the hotsearch board and covered all game forums in China.
Yet before we could be happy, another worry arose in the gaming community in this country. As you know, China is a country with very strict censorship regulations for entertainment products, including movies, books, and games. In particular, scenes with 18+ elements or gore will often have to be edited to be released.
For example, the case of Kimetsu no Yaiba, though anime Although it is globally famous with a large fan base, the film still cannot escape being censored. It can be seen that the characters in the movie have been covered with extra clothes to cover the high wall. Meanwhile, bloody scenes will be cut out or the red blood part will be deleted.
Therefore, players of billions of people are worried that this will continue with the version Black Mythology released here, especially when the game has a rather dark theme. Some sensitive scenes listed such as the skull monster, the blood lake at Boss Tiger Tien Phong’s place… may need to be edited. This ensures the game will be released smoothly, but it will clearly have a big impact on gamers’ game experience.
Players are worried that Dark Myth will have to be edited
Of course, it must be said again and again, unlike widely released products such as movies or books, Dark Legends is a copyrighted game and may set an age limit to limit the target audience. be exposed to the game. Therefore, censorship of game titles may not be as strict as other mass entertainment products.
Dark Myth: Wukong is expected to officially release on August 20 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and PC.
