Black Myth: Wukong, a 2024 Game of the Year nominee, offers a surprising free trial for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers. While PS Plus Essential and Extra members miss out, Premium users can experience a two-hour trial of this highly acclaimed action RPG.
The full game, which typically requires around 36 hours to complete, offers a substantial glimpse into its captivating world. This two-hour trial represents a fraction of the overall gameplay but provides enough time to assess whether to purchase the full game. Launched on August 19, 2024, Black Myth: Wukong quickly climbed the ranks alongside titles like EA Sports College Football 25 and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, becoming one of the year’s best-selling and most successful games.
This free trial offers a unique opportunity for PlayStation 5 users to explore the game without the initial $59.99 price tag on the PlayStation Store. The duration of the trial remains undisclosed, suggesting it might be a permanent offering.
For those unfamiliar with Black Myth: Wukong, it’s an action RPG deeply rooted in Chinese mythology. Drawing inspiration from “Journey to the West,” a cornerstone of Chinese literature, the game immerses players in a world of ancient legends and mythical creatures. Players embark on a journey as the Destined One, confronting challenges and unraveling the truth hidden within a magnificent legend.
While a full free download through PS Plus Essential, Extra, or Premium’s game libraries seems unlikely given the game’s remarkable success, this trial presents an excellent entry point for interested players.
