Bloodborne remains one of the most acclaimed action RPGs of all time, with very few able to compete with its combination of combat, boss design, and setting. That's despite acclaimed efforts like NEOWIZ's Lies of P, launched last year.

However, Game Science's Black Myth: Wukong could be an exception. Though it lacks many commonalities with Bloodborne, namely FromSoftware's design, the transforming weapons, and guns, the fast-paced action could attract long-time fans. It's already revealed its share of incredibly designed boss fights brimming with imagination alongside gorgeous environments and characters.

Best of all, it's not limited to previous-gen consoles or suffers from frame-pacing issues based on gameplay thus far. Black Myth: Wukong launches on August 20th for PS5 and PC (with the Xbox Series X/S version coming later). It may not have the same Gothic-era, horror vibe, but here's why Bloodborne fans should be excited.
