Something you might not know, is that Erlang and Wukong are good friends, and sworn brothers too. He threatened to level Wukong's mountain to make the celestial court happy, but in the end, he didn't actually do it. When Wukong threatened to pluck out Erlang's third eye, he actually means to store his memories in it to be retrieved by his descendents (the player character) Erlang was the first to rebel against heaven, even before Wukong. He was a demigod, born as Jade Emperor's sister made love to a mortal man. As a punishment, his mother was locked away, his father and sister killed. He holds a grudge against the celestial court even now, and respects Wukong for his rebellion greatly. While each of them is able to create a ruckus, they are unable to overthrow the old order.

[@jiemongpingpong]

SunWuKong was born in a rock located in the "Mountain of Flowers and Fruits" and was hailed the monkey king after winning a bet, and started enjoying himself. But later after one of his close friends died, he realized that he'll eventually die and not be able to be happy anymore. So he traveled far and learned powers from an immortal, and became extremely powerful (and obtained immortality). And then he searched for a suitable weapon for him. He found one in the East Water Dragon King's temple, and took it after winning another bet. The weapon weighted around 8000kg and can grow and shrink at will. The Water Dragon snitched on SunWuKong and the Jade Emperor tried various ways to pacify SunWuKong. But it failed and he attacked the Mountain of Flowers and Fruits. SunWuKong was captured by YangZian (The three eyed guy with the dog), and was put into a crucifix to be molten into an elixir. But SunWuKong survived and ended up destroying heaven and almost killed everyone. So Buddha was forced to come and trapped SunWuKong under a magical mountain, he was trapped there for 500 years before a monk came. The monk was the protagonist of "The Journey to the West" and was the person who went on this journey. SunWuKong tricked the monk into freeing him and became the monks apprentice. But the monkey was mischievous, and ran off after being unhappy with his new master. After he ran off, another immortal came and gifted the monk a magical golden headband, and gave instructions on how to use it. The monk tricked SunWuKong into putting on the headband, which caused immense pain when a certain magical poem was read. After that SunWuKong obeyed his master and protected him with two other apprentices, a humanoid pig and a blue-skinned-read-haired-humanoid. After they made the journey after 9 long years, SunWuKong was made a Buddha. But SunWuKong found the rules of being a Buddha cumbersome, so he returned to his birthplace to live in peace. And that is where the game begins. (Note: The Monk wasn't a bad guy for forcing SunWuKong to obey him, what I explained has highly oversimplified. Also, The last two sentences about SunWuKong returning to his mountain is made up, not originally in the story. Although it is highly believable.) Please liek this took me 30 minutes. Hot diddly-dog that's a lot of likes, most support I ever gotten.

I doubt anyone will see this but homeboy in the beginning is "Erlang Shen" aka the other baddest mfer to walk the planet other than Wukong himself. He is the Jade Emperor's (Zeus equivalent in the Chinese pantheon) go-to headknocker. Bit more extra context, before Wukong's Journey to the West, that man legitimately wanted ALL the smoke from everybody and WON until the supreme Buddha (creator of the universe more or less) intervened and humbled him along with the Goddess of Mercy who put the famous circlet on him. In short, Wukong was HIM

I know the general story of Sun Wukong from things such as fate, god of high school, and other things so I was so excited getting a game like this, playing as our great sage equal to heaven. Though it’s interesting that it’s after the journey. I love how cultural the game is, every enemy gets a poem and a folk tale, even the mobs get one, I love this game so far and the fact I’m learning more about the journey. Jinchi is a part of the original journey right?

[@Merco81]

Afro, it should be pointed out that the prologue featured the OG Sun Wukong. The reason you didn't receive damage is because he's basically invulnerable and immortal. I highly recommend listening to the "Journey to the West" audible, it really is a great listen and won't spoil the story as the events of Black Myth Wukong happen after the story (recall how Wukong reflected that the master was safe and the scriptures are secured).

Some background on Sun Wukong: He was a monkey who ate from the tree of immortality and obtained godly strength. For awhile he teamed with the other deities in their court and they effectively made Sun Wukong a secret weapon against various demonic threats. Sun Wukong shares Goku's lust for battle so when there wasn't a lot of demonic entities left he kinda just said "Fuck it" and decided to duke it out with the deities. I'm fairly certain that after this point he teams up with a Monk who helps Sun Wukong out and they travel to the West. Also pretty sure that along the way, Sun Wukong get's like.... eight different kinds of immortality so... yeah. Also, fun fact: Sun Wukong's pole is just a pillar from a Dragon's house that he shrank down into a staff. The Dragon wasn't very happy with him but... not like the Dragon could really do anything against Sun.

[@haseo12161]

You forgot yo mention that pole had no real purpose other than to measure the high of the sea or a river. It was literally just a measuring stick in the dragon's eyes but Wukong saw the perfect weapon.

You did miss the part where Buddha imprisons him in a mountain for 1000 years for his shenanigans. The monk he “teams up with” is Sanzhang and he didn’t exactly team up with him. He was tasked to escort Sanzhang on a pilgrimage to the west beginning his “Journey to The West”. He was forced to wear a golden headband that Sanzhang can shrink with a chant causing him great pain in order to control him. The headband appears on his head at the end of the opening boss fight.

15:16 The scene where he transforms into a peach is a nod to a moment from the original story. Sun Wukong was once invited to the heavenly realm to guard the celestial peach garden. But seeing so much fruit, the Monkey King couldn’t resist indulging himself. After eating his fill, he transformed into a peach on the tree and fell asleep. He revealed himself when a heavenly maiden came to pick the peaches and unknowingly picked him.

There is no immortality for Kratos. He will die if he is killed while Our boi Wukong just can't die even with his immortality removed because of how many layers he have.

Wukong is arguably the strongest fictional character there is. This dude got multiple layers of immortality and every single one of his hair can turn in a clone just as powerful as the original and those clones can make more clones. This just the base, he got even more power so, as much as I love Kratos, he is not winning against Wukong.

[@jonathangoodwin5609]

While he is OP, 'Strongest in fiction' is excessive wank. Several layers of immortality is impressive, yeah. But several of those immortalities are just longevity, and they also, as this game shows, doesn't stop him from getting defeated. (Not to mention that there are plenty of enemies in the book that he needed help to defeat). Aside from that and the clones(both of which other fictional characters have similar abilities to, none of his tricks are really all that special if compared against all of fiction. Like, there are fictional,characters capable of destroying universes with a thought, which Wukong really wouldn't have an answer to. You could say he is the strongest in Journey to the West, and you would have a reasonable stancfe.

[@jonathangoodwin5609]

Its also worth noting that every trick Wukong has is LEARNED, not innate to him. Meaning that, aside from the immortality, theoretically any character in his own book could learn his tricks, and there are several examples of characters actually doing so.

[@Matt-uv7mc]

Man, I was thinking the same thing. But, people don't realize the influence wukong has had on everything. Movies, anime, etc. But, Kratos is a different kind of beast. If they fought three times? I would say Kratos comes out top. The reason is, Wukong was arrogant and made a lot of mistakes. Kratos anger and rage is what would propel him to beat him. Who knows though, but that's my opinion.

[@dembi2770]

​@@jonathangoodwin5609 counterpoint, if wukong fought some insane being he would probably be able to learn its powers. He isn't the strongest in journey to the west (supreme buddha still has him beat) but i think he is kind of like goku, as in he can become infinitely powerful.

[@thearkhamknight2267]

Ok so back when the game was announced I took it upon myself to read the novel, couldn't read the whole thing as it got weird and I lost interest but I guess I got though the prologue just before the "Journey to the west" began. Here's what I remember: There's this nice mountain, and in that mountain there's a rock, that rock gets showered by cosmic energy and eventually after a many many years, something happens and the monkey is born from the rock, as he is born the whole world takes notice that something happened. Years go by and the monkey is living in the mountain with his other monkey having fun and stuff until he eventually gets bored (maybe he fears death and goes seek imortality) and then he goes on an adventure. He travels a bit and eventually reaches a temple with a bigshot monk in it. The monk gives him a riddle and the monkey solves it, and the monk decides to give him a Buddhist name. He first thinks of Sun MuWon, but that has some negative meaning and then he finally lands on Sun WuKong which means monkey awakened to emptiness. He stays there some more, learns cool stuff, like a bunch of transformations and a nice summersault and then leaves. (forgot if he got some form of immortality from this). On his way back he stops by some kind of king's temple, berates the king and steals the king's cool item including the power pole (it has something nice inscribed in it but I forgotwhat). He also erases his friends' names from the records of death so they're all immortal now I guess. Eventually he gets back to him original mountain, and he gets the name handsome monkey and monkey king (or maybe that was before his trip). Anyways, the gods get annoyed at him for being arrogant and want to teach him a lesson so they come down to beat him up. Turns out WuKong is hella tough and gives them a run for their money. They keep sending ops, but no one is strong enough for our boy. Until the, Jade Emperor, who is the big shot god in this pantheon, think Odin, Zeus, Amon Ra, summons the man the myth the legend Erlang (this is the guy that was fighting WuKong at the beginning in the video). This guy is described the be insanely handsome. They battle it out, both take on a bunch of forms in between, including birds at some point (like in the video) but it either ends up in a stalemate or Erlang wins. Stuff happens, and they reach a deal where all the gods agree to send WuKong to heaven, but give him a fake title that has 0 responsabilities. It takes a while for him to realize this and when he does he gets mad and demands to be given the title "Great Sage Equaling Heaven", which is very arrogant. Stuff happens they give him the title and he is put in charge of a garden. The heavens are about to hold a big banquet, WuKong is bored and he eats some fruit from the garden that he was supposed to take care of, which he definitely shouldn't have done. He pulls up to the banquet and he drinks the fancies wine, gets drunks, which he definitely shouldn't have done, and then he eats one more thing and gets high, which he definitely shouldn't have done. Turns out, all 3 of those things give immortality and he now has, like 3 or 4 layers of immortality. The heavens are absolutely fucking livid at him and they send a bunch more gods to fight. Eating all 3 things made him into a super saiyan basically so he was unstoppable, no matter who came at him, WuKong beat their ass. It wasn't until Buddha himself, the omnipotent one above all, the presence, zeno-sama, the creator, the writer of the novel himself pulled up and told him if he could leave his hand, WuKong would be free to go otherwise he'd surrender. Wukong was like bet, did an insane summersault, travelled to the edge of the universe in seconds, took a piss at the corner, wrote something down and then summersaulted back. He thought he passed the test, but turns out he was in Buddha's hand all along, (this scene gets referenced in other media so it's good to know the origin). So he gave up, got sealed somewhere on earth, and had the tiara thing that tightens a lot causing immense pain on his head at some point. This is bout where I stopped reading, but after this the novel starts going bouncing from character to character, reciting poems and becomes a bit hard to follow. But it picks up again when a certain monk is tasked by a Boddhisatva to take very very ultra important scrolls somewhere west, and forces WuKong to accompany this new monk as a way to atone. He is joined by Sandy, and Pig something (the one Wukong referrences at the begging) who the Boddhisatva met when he laid the groundwork for the scripture to be transferred. And so began the Journey to the West. Thanks for reading all this, you probably could've read a summary online, but thanks anyways

[@xyloiscool]

here are some errors i found and clarifications that might help you understand better: 1 - At the beginning of the story, Sun and his fellow monkeys saw a stream and decided to follow it and see where it led to. They soon find out it leads to a huge waterfall. The monkeys decide that whoever goes into the waterfall and comes out alive will be honored as a king. Of course, Wukong goes in and out alive so they make him their majesty and call him their Handsome Monkey King. There was a giant room with a throne behind the waterfall (idk how to say it in English). Wukong and the monkeys decide to live there and they did for a while. One day, an elder monkey dies from old age and that triggers Wukong mid-life crisis (death battle joke). Wukong started to fear death so he decided to leave the palace to seek immortality and that's when he starts his first adventure. 2 - He actually meets 2 monks with the 2nd one teaching him his 72 tricks. Transformation, summersault cloud and pluck of many being some of them. He leaves one of the monks because of a misunderstanding and the other one because his master doesn't see any reason for him to stay since he taught him everything. He hasn't reached immortality yet. 3 - A powerful being needs a powerful weapon, so he seeks to the Dragon's Palace in search for a good weapon. None of the weapons the Dragon King provided was useful to him so he wanders around and finds a gigantic pole that can change size at will. In the King's eye, it was just a useless pole he used to measure the depht of the sea, but it was the perfect weapon for Sun Wukong. 4 - He only erases HIS name in the book of death so he literally cannot die. 5 - When the gods and goddesses gave Wukong a job in the heavens, he was a stableboy aka the last rank in heaven. Basically his job was to take care of horses and horse shit. Of course, he gets mad and wants to have a proper job. The Jade Emperor finally decides to make him the Guard of the Immortal Peaches. 6 - At the banquet, while being drunk, he also gets into one of the god's palace (I forgot who) and empties like 5 gourds each with thousands of immortality pills. So he's basically OVER 9000!! in immortality. 7 - The Buddha reached nirvana so the entire universe was in his palm. That's why Wukong couldn't get out of his hand. (btw that also means he pissed on the buddha's finger and wrote on one of his fingers aswell). So because he lost the bet, Bouddha locked him under a mountain in timeout for 500 years. After 500 years (don't forget he's immortal so he didn't die) he's tasked to escort a monk to the west Tangsanzhang thus beginning his pilgrimage to the West. bonus fact: in the tv series (and the story), there was a kid who would feed wukong while he was locked in the mountain and once he got out, he met an old man who was once that kid who fed wukong all these years ago (ofc he wasn't 500 yrs old). So this was another reference to Wukong's immortality. 8 - Pigsy and Sandy were actually monsters/obstacles on Wukong's path, but his master Tangsanzhang decided to recruit them. Pigsy was once a god but got caught acting sus towards other goddesses while drunk and Sandy was a guard that killed anyone who dared step foot on a bridge. bonus fact: Pigsy's name in Chinese literally means 8 forbidden things. So after being punished and reincarnated into a pig, he couldn't do 8 things (like drinking and other stuff). Hope this helped!

The reason why Sun Wukong is confident is because he was able to beat the Divine Army no problem the first time they attacked him. When they attacked him a second time, that’s the three-eyed god(who Tien from Dragon Ball is inspired from) who is the Jade Emperor’s nephew, joined in along with his squad and dog. Sun Wukong would beaten the nephew as well, but TLDR, the nephew was just barely able to subdue the Monkey King with help due to luck.

[@dragonl4d216]

Erlang is on par with Sun Wukong in terms of power. Both of them mastered the 72 transformations and have achieved several legendary feats, that is why Guanyin recommended the Jade Emperor to send Erlang Shen to subdue Wukong in the novel "Journey to the West".

[@unamusedrowlett6303]

Adding some context to Wukong vs Kratos. You remember that part in Ragnarök during the fight with Thor where you get a fake game over? Wukong would've ate that hit 10x over and still take him on no difficulty. Wukong has 7 variations of immortality to the point where fighting him is flat out impossible. The only reason why Erlang Shen was able to best him was because of the circlet on his head that gives him an ear splitting headache when a chant is performed, one of the very few ways the gods in Chinese mythos can take on Sun Wukong without burying him in a mountain.

[@zarnubareacts2841]

the directors of ragnarok already confirmed that the fake game over was just a one thing they wanted to do and that kratos wasn't killed nor knocked out by it. Which is proved as kratos is tanking full power thor in the 2nd fight and overpowering him without himself going full power. Old kratos has been confirmed by Cory barlog to be stronger than his younger self and We've never seen old kratos go full power against anyone. Kratos is possibly the strongest god in all mythos and wukong prolly the closest to him as Kratos destroyed a whole mythology which is Greece and proceeded to destroy Norse's strongest god without even needing to go full power. Plus the director also told that during baldur vs kratos first fight. He wanted a mountain to be thrown at kratos but it was not technically possible at that time but now with ps5 maybe in the next game we can see kratos get bigger fights
