Black Myth: Wukong Leak Prompts Producer's Plea for Spoiler Avoidance
With the release of Black Myth: Wukong fast approaching (August 20th), producer Feng Ji has urged players to refrain from spreading leaked gameplay footage. The appeal follows a recent surge of unauthorized content circulating online.

In response, Feng Ji posted on Weibo, emphasizing the importance of preserving the game's element of surprise. He explained that the game's immersive experience hinges on the player's sense of discovery and that spoilers significantly diminish this key aspect.
Feng Ji directly addressed fans, imploring them to resist viewing or sharing leaked material. He stressed the responsibility players have towards each other, particularly in protecting those who wish to experience the game unspoiled. He specifically stated, "If a friend explicitly states they don't want spoilers, please help protect their experience." Despite the leak, Feng Ji remains confident that the game's unique qualities will still captivate players, regardless of prior exposure to leaked content.
