Black Myth: Wukong reportedly did not pass Xbox’s bug detection tests due to a ‘memory leak’ issue and has been ‘indefinitely delayed’ for the console.
Since the release of Game Science’s latest action RPG, many have wondered when Black Myth: Wukong will be released for Xbox Series X/S. According to the latest reports, the wait can be longer than expected. eXtas1s, the reliable Xbox leaks source, recently spoke about the release delay, citing a game crashing bug as the main problem.
exTas1s met several Xbox insiders and developers at Gamescom 2024, who informed him about the technical issue impacting the release of Black Myth: Wukong. According to the insiders, a ‘memory leak’ bug is causing “significant crashes” and performance issues on the Xbox consoles. Due to that, the game hasn’t passed the bug detection test and has been “indefinitely delayed until they manage to optimize the game for Series X|S.”
Black Myth: Wukong developers are working hard to remedy the situation, and once they receive the “necessary certification,” a release date should follow. exTas1s added that Black Myth Wukong failed Xbox’s bug detection test twice, which is why the game has been delayed indefinitely. Hopefully, a fix will arrive soon.
