Black Myth: Wukong has made an impressive debut, reaching over 1.2 million players on Steam just two hours after its launch. This milestone has already surpassed the high player counts of well-established games like Elden Ring and Cyberpunk 2077, which had previously set records on the platform according to SteamDB.
