A Microsoft representative in a statement sent to Forbes said they are working with developer Game Science to bring Black Myth: Wukong to the Xbox Series X|S.
The representative said the Xbox Series X|S version wasn't delayed because of limitations with the Xbox Series S.
"As we have said before, we’re excited for the launch of Black Myth: Wukong on Xbox Series X|S and are working with Game Science to bring the game to our platforms," reads the statement from Microsoft.
"We'd prefer not to comment on the deals made by our partners with other platform holders but we can confirm that the delay is not due to Xbox platform limitations that have been raised to us."
Black Myth: Wukong released for the PlayStation 5, PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, and the WeGame platform in China on August 20.

It looks like another case of Xbox being reactive rather than proactive. Seems like the answer is somewhere in the middle. There is no exclusive contract, but Sony provided engineers and resources to speed along development of the PS5 version of the game, recognizing the potential the game had even though they didn't have to. Whereas Xbox, again, saw a game go viral and only then decided to act xD
Another Xbox leadership failure. Sony awhile ago helped these developers so it could release on their game the same day as PC, but Xbox who is far bigger, has far more money, and already has a Game Pass deal in place….. did nothing to help get it released on the same time as everyone else. Utterly incompetent.
Also, I don’t believe for 1 second that the Series S did not this game back from releasing at the same time.
It happens too often. and it’s factually more work to do than it is for any other modern console.
That's such an alpha move. They bought a bunch of studios, thus owning several huge IPs. Now they are dipping out.
I can't say I agree with every move MS has made. But boy, they spent a lot of money to stop caring so suddenly.
Unreal engine 5 will look terrible on series s, based off hellblade 2
Ill say they should release it on series x only
It's going to take months to get it to work, and when it does launch it's going to look and run like turd on the XBSS.
you’ve made like ten other comments complaining about the XBSS. Lol it’s a cheap alternative. idk enough about it to say whether your critiques are valid, tho this feels a little excessive, no?
No amount of criticism of the S could be considered excessive as far as I'm concerned. What good is a cheap alternative if all you get is delayed games and developers complaining. My tablet has almost as much RAM as the S and it's 6 years old
(btw i'm not the one downvoting. ppl are just aggressive on here sometimes...i feel i need to clarify lol.)
Hahaha thanks for not adding to it. I must admit I have downvoted some of your posts in the past but from now on I'm not going to! Peace treaty lol
By that same argument... The Playstation 5 has as much Ram as my PC from 20 years ago.
But the Ram capacity isn't the whole story, it's also the ram type and speed.
Your tablet isn't having the same memory throughput as the Series S and my PC from 20 years ago wasn't even in the same ballpark as a PS5's memory system.
If you bring up bandwidth and throughput though that just makes the XBSS look even worse because it's on par with the PS4 Pro which is almost 8 years old. We know this because games like RE4 remake ran almost identically on the XBSS and PS4 Pro
Specs please.
The game works really well on the Steamdeck. So...
Oh damn so Steamdeck is more powerful than xbss confirmed!!!!
