Lighting up Chinese mythology: When technology meets “Black Myth: Wukong”

As digital technology continues to advance, virtual reality (XR) and artificial intelligence generated content (AIGC) technologies are reshaping the gaming industry and endowing new vitality to traditional culture. As an adventure game based on the Chinese classic Journey to the West, “Black Myth: Wukong” not only carries the profound Chinese mythology culture, but also shows us the perfect combination of tradition and modernity through the use of XR and AIGC technologies, creating a rich and unforgettable gaming experience.


I. Immersive experience brought by XR technology
1. A meticulous virtual world
XR technology, covering virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR), allows players to experience the historical and legendary world of “Black Myth: Wukong” in person. Through XR devices, players can not only explore freely in the virtual environment, but also interact directly with elements in the environment from a first-person perspective.
For example, when players soar in the world of the Monkey King, the immersive 360-degree field of view allows them to feel the wind blowing, the clouds changing, and the magnificence of the mountains and rivers. Whether under the Five Elements Mountain or above the Heavenly Palace, XR technology can present every detail of the Chinese mythology one by one, pushing a traditional story into a new dimension.

2. Real interactive game mechanism
The application of XR is not limited to visual experience, it also creates a broader space for the interactivity of the game. In “Black Myth: Wukong”, players can interact with game characters more intuitively through gesture recognition or body movements, and even participate in battles, using real movements to attack or defend. This interactive method allows players to not only watch the plot, but also truly become part of the story, experiencing a more real adventure than ever before.


II. Creative Innovation of AIGC Technology
1. Dynamically Generated Content
With the rapid development of AIGC technology, the environment, characters and plots in the game can be dynamically generated according to the player's choices and behaviors. Every decision made by the player in the game will affect the direction of the story. We can see how AIGC has brought subversive innovation to the content creation of "Black Myth: Wukong".
For example, when the player chooses a different path or adopts a different combat strategy, the AIGC engine can generate new tasks and challenges in real time, and even bring new character interactions and dialogues. This not only increases the playability and replay value of the game, but also allows each player to have a different gaming experience.

2. Humanized design of analysis and feedback
AIGC can also provide personalized suggestions and feedback through analysis of player behavior to further enhance the gaming experience. In Black Myth: Wukong, AIGC can intelligently adjust the difficulty of the game based on the player's operating habits and skill preferences, and even provide customized tasks and props to help players better master the rhythm of the game.

For example, every scene in the game has been carefully polished, and the details emphasize the beauty of the mountains and rivers and the richness of local customs and customs. Through XR technology, players can not only see these scenes, but also interact with them in depth in the virtual environment, making this cultural heritage no longer an abstract behavior, but a vivid experience.

2. Combination of technology and art
The addition of AIGC adds more artistic flavor to this cultural feast.
