Black Myth: Wukong Physical Editions

Physical Editions Only Have Steam Codes

Black Myth: Wukong's physical Deluxe and Collector's Editions will only come with activation codes for Steam, and not with a physical disc for your PS5, nor a download code for the console or for the Epic Games Store.

If you are planning to purchase these editions and play the game on a PS5 or via the Epic Games Store, you will not be able to use the code from the bundle as it will only work on Steam.

No Discs Due to Limitations

It is the first time for Game Science to release a console game globally, and we are currently facing limitations in offline resources required for the import, export, transportation, distribution, and sales of physical discs. These factors have made it difficult for us to sell physical discs simultaneously with the official release of the game.

Our publishing team is actively working on resolving these issues and exploring options to offer physical discs.
Official Pre-Order FAQ

Game Science, the team behind Black Myth: Wukong, has shared that it is their first time releasing a game globally, and they are currently facing limitations in regards to releasing the game via physical discs, which is the reason why the physical editions of the game only come with activation codes.

Is Deluxe Edition Worth It?

Physical Deluxe Edition is Worth It for Collectors

The physical Deluxe Edition, along with the Collector's Edition, can be worth buying if you're an avid collector or a big fan of the Journey to the West story.

The Deluxe Edition comes with the Constraining Headband, Sun Wukong's iconic headpiece, while the Collector's Edition comes with a 40-centimeter statue of Sun Wukong himself.

Do note that these editions will only come with activation codes for Steam and will not have a disc for the PS5 or codes that will work on the Epic Games Store.

Headband Not Included in Collector's Edition

If you are planning to purchase the Collector's Edition of the game, you will only obtain the Sun Wukong statue and Teaching of the Heart Sutra print, and not the main collectibles from the Deluxe Edition, which includes the Constraining Headband and a different print.

This may be seen as a downside for anyone who is aiming to get all available collectibles of Black Myth: Wukong, as they will need to purchase both the Deluxe and Collector's Editions if they want both the headpiece and the statue.

Digital Deluxe Edition is Worth It

The Digital Deluxe Edition is worth getting since the full Folk Opera armor set that you obtain not only has high defenses, but also has a passive that increases the amount of Will obtained.

You also get a stronger Staff and a Curio that increases your movement speed. While these will eventually get outclassed by stronger armor and weapons later in the game, the deluxe edition is still worth getting for that boost in power and defense in the early game!
