Game Science has rolled out a major new update for Black Myth: Wukong on PlayStation 5, focusing on smoother gameplay, visual improvements, and overall system stability. Released on October 13, 2025, the patch (version 1.0.20) is one of the game's largest updates to date, weighing in at nearly 93 GB.
The update's most notable addition is a native 60 Hz performance mode, delivering faster input response and more stable frame rates. Players can now choose between the new mode or the "legacy" version, depending on their preference for visuals versus speed.
Game Science has also enhanced lighting and texture quality, especially for players using lower graphical settings. The patch corrects issues like flickering, motion blur artifacts, and aliasing problems during combat and cutscenes.
Under the hood, the PS5 version benefits from faster loading times and optimized memory usage. Several boss bugs and UI localization errors have been fixed, including subtitle mismatches and overlapping menus. New language support, such as Czech, has also been added.
Developers recommend clearing sufficient storage space before downloading due to the patch's large size. Players using mods should remove them before updating to avoid crashes or data corruption.
The Black Myth: Wukong PS5 update marks a significant technical leap for console players, offering smoother performance and a more polished visual experience. More patches are expected to follow as Game Science continues refining the action RPG and prepares for future projects within the "Black Myth" universe.
