Imagine Son Goku, the iconic hero from the Dragon Ball series, navigating the mythological world of Black Myth: Wukong. Thanks to a new mod, this fantasy is now a reality.
The Mod
Created by modder NorskPL, this mod replaces the game's protagonist, the Monkey King Wukong, with Son Goku. This swap is purely cosmetic, meaning it doesn't alter the gameplay but allows Goku to explore and battle in the detailed world of Black Myth: Wukong.
Inspiration and Connection
Both Dragon Ball Z and Black Myth: Wukong draw inspiration from the classic Chinese novel Journey to the West. In Dragon Ball Z, Goku's character is based on Sun Wukong, the Monkey King. This mod brings these two worlds together in a unique and exciting way.
How to Get the Mod
To install the Goku mod, follow these steps:
- Ensure you have Black Myth: Wukong installed on Steam.
- Download the mod from Nexus Mods.
- Extract the mod files into the game directory.
- Run the game, and you'll be playing as Goku.
Note that the mod currently only replaces Wukong's initial outfit, so you'll need to select specific clothing items in the game menu to avoid issues.
Other Mods
This isn't the only interesting crossover mod available. Other mods let you play as Tifa from Final Fantasy or even Darth Maul from Star Wars. These mods add a fresh twist to the Black Myth: Wukong experience.
Game Performance
Black Myth: Wukong, despite its impressive visuals and record-breaking sales, requires a powerful computer to run smoothly. Even with high-end hardware like a GeForce RTX 4090, players have reported crashes and other issues.
Availability
Black Myth: Wukong is available on PC and PS5, with the Xbox Series X|S version release date still pending.
This mod is a must-try for fans of both Dragon Ball Z and Black Myth: Wukong, offering a fun and unique gaming experience.
