Everyone wants to kill you
This article is over 1 years old and may contain outdated information.
By now, you might’ve noticed that Black Myth: Wukong doesn’t hold its punches, and I’m referring to the many Yaoguai Kings and Chiefs you can find. Most of the time, the game will feel like a boss rush, and while it might overwhelm many, that should deter you from giving them a good old staff pummeling to the face. Since many of them are hidden throughout the game’s zones, we’ve compiled a list of them and organized them by chapter. So, sit down, relax, and take a look at every boss you’ll eventually face in this journey.
