Black Myth: Wukong reportedly exceeds 30,000,000 sales

The action role-playing game Black Myth: Wukong has sold more than 30 million copies worldwide since its August 2024 launch, according to a recent report from the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League of China. The milestone, if confirmed, would place the Chinese-developed title among the fastest-selling premium games in recent years, outpacing the sales trajectory of major titles like Elden Ring and approaching the lifetime sales of Cyberpunk 2077.

Developer Game Science has not officially verified the 30 million figure. In a statement, the studio said it had no new sales data to share beyond its previously announced milestone of over 10 million copies sold across all platforms within four days of launch. The studio did state, however, that Black Myth: Wukong has "achieved results beyond our expectations in both China and international markets," and expressed gratitude for global player support. The report indicated that over half of the game's sales came from outside China, highlighting its international appeal.
