The Crown of Wu is an upcoming action game inspired by the 16th-century Chinese novel Journey to the West (as is Black Myth: Wukong), and it’s coming to PS5 and PS4 later in 2022.

You play as Sun Wukong, fighting alone to reclaim the titular crown of Wu. You will need to overcome complex puzzles, traverse inhospitable environments and take down fearsome bosses on your quest.

The Crown of Wu was a semi-finalist in the PlayStation Talents program, which is an institution that aims to grow Spain’s burgeoning development scene further. It looks a teensy bit shaky at times, but here’s hoping the team are able to tighten things up ahead of launch.
