SUMMARY
  • Black Myth: Wukong was released just a week ago, and within seven days, a modder did a great job in bringing an unexpected mod to the game.
  • Goku is one of the most renowned characters in the Dragon Ball series, and now, he is available to complete the journey in place of the Destined One.
  • Though both characters are inspired by the same Chinese novel, Journey to the West, this mod was kind of surprising for players.

Black Myth: Wukong was one of the most anticipated action role-playing games released this year. It’s only been a week since Game Science brought the Destined One to life, and players have already dived into adventures with him. This character is based on Sun Wukong from a centuries-old Chinese novel, Journey to the West.

The game has six chapters to play, and players can experience different endings to the story. While these are already interesting enough for action RPG gamers, there is something more exciting waiting for them. They can now become Son Goku instead of Sun Wukong to experience the journey of the game. 

Dragon Ball Z Fans Get a Huge Chance to Experience Their Favorite Character in a Different Setting

Black Myth: Wukong has become more exciting for Dragon Ball Z fans, as they can now experience Goku in the game.

The Dragon Ball Z games are some of the most hyped titles based on a renowned Japanese manga series. With multiple successful games, this series has been running for decades, and currently, players have been waiting for the upcoming installment in the series, Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero. 

This game is scheduled to be released on October 11, 2024. In the meantime, it seems that Goku is going to go on the most unexpected journey of his life. With the new mod that was made by NorskPL on NexusMods, players can replace the Destined One with Goku. This is not only something unexpected, but it’s highly creative to connect Dragon Ball Z with Black Myth: Wukong

The connection is pretty prevalent between these two characters, as both of them are based on the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. While Black Myth: Wukong is entirely inspired by it, the Dragon Ball series is loosely based on it. Even Goku’s Flying Nimbus has been taken from the novel.

The detailing is impressive. The modder has taken care of the appearance of Goku, including the outfit and all. He gets his Nimbus Cloud in the game, and the fighting style is also impressive. Therefore, once you switch to Goku, it will be him who fights all the enemies and completes the adventure.

Dragon Ball Z Fans Give Mixed Reactions to Finding Goku in Black Myth: Wukong

The appearance of Goku seems pretty impressive, as the modder made him look like how players generally see him in the Dragon Ball games.

Modders often come up with unique ideas to entertain players. Sometimes, they succeed; otherwise, fans brutally criticize these mods. However, fortunately, the Goku mod didn’t get criticized, though it got some mixed reactions from gamers as soon as the gameplay clips circulated on social platforms.

Though fans praised the mod, some of them really want the modder to work on the textures to make it better.

However, some of them stated that it would be great if the Goku mod came with a skill tree for hand-to-hand combat.

In Black Myth: Wukong, the magic cloud is white. Therefore, players want the Goku mod to come with a yellow Nimbus like the one from Dragon Ball Z.

Well, modders are becoming creative these days, coming up with some great ideas to surprise players.

Sometimes, they can even make gamers feel nostalgic about some old games.

While waiting for Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero, it won’t be a bad idea to experience Black Myth: Wukong’s journey as Goku.
