Gamers charged Black Myth: Wukong's creators with \"laziness and lies\"

Game Science's president, Yokar-Feng Ji, attributed the absence of a Black Myth: Wukong Xbox Series S version to the console's limited 10GB RAM (8GB usable after system allocation). This, he claimed, presents significant optimization challenges requiring extensive expertise.

However, this explanation has been met with considerable player skepticism. Many suspect an exclusive deal with Sony is the true reason, while others criticize the developers for perceived laziness, citing successful Series S ports of more graphically demanding titles.

A key question raised by gamers is why the Series S limitations are only now being highlighted, years after the game's 2020 announcement—a time when the Series S specifications were already public knowledge.

Player reactions have been overwhelmingly negative, with common sentiments including:

• Contradictions with previous statements, particularly the game's Xbox release date announcement at TGA 2023.
• Accusations of developer laziness and reliance on an underpowered graphics engine.
• Comparisons to successful Series S ports of similarly demanding games like Indiana Jones, Starfield, and Hellblade 2.

The lack of a clear, definitive answer regarding an Xbox Series X|S release continues to fuel speculation and discontent within the gaming community.
