Frequently asked questions about Black Myth: Wukong
Does Black Myth: Wukong run at 60 FPS on a €1,000 PC?
At 1080p with DLSS/FSR Quality mode enabled, yes — an RTX 3060 Ti or RX 6700 XT (~€1,000 build) can reach 55–65 FPS at medium/high. For ultra settings, you need €1,200–1,500.
Why is Black Myth: Wukong so demanding?
Wukong uses Unreal Engine 5 with Nanite (virtual geometry, millions of polygons) and Lumen (real-time global illumination). These technologies are very demanding, especially without DLSS/FSR enabled.
DLSS or FSR for Black Myth: Wukong?
The game supports both DLSS 3 (NVIDIA RTX) and FSR 3 (AMD/NVIDIA). DLSS 3 offers superior quality on RTX cards. FSR 3 is recommended for AMD cards — the visual difference is minimal in Quality mode.
Does Black Myth: Wukong run on a gaming laptop?
Yes, but you need a high-end gaming laptop. An RTX 4060 mobile (€1,200–1,500 laptops) delivers 45–60 FPS at 1080p recommended quality with DLSS enabled.
