After months of agonising waiting and mixed messaging, Ancient Chinese RPG Black Myth: Wukong eventually got an Xbox release date earlier this month - and it finally feels real as digital pre-orders have just gone live for the game, with a nice bonus for Xbox players.

Yep, ahead of the game's August 20th release date for Xbox Series X|S, developer Game Science has opened up pre-orders for the long-awaited title - and it has a 20% launch discount on the Xbox Store. That brings the game's price down to just £43.99 / $47.99 on Xbox Series X|S, which certainly seems a fair price in the current market.

We'll chuck a link to the game's Xbox pre-order page down below:

Now, it's worth mentioning that at the time of posting, this discount has roughly three weeks left - with the Xbox Store currently advising that the promotion ends in 22 days' time. However, given that these sorts of pre-order discounts typically run up until launch, we'd expect that price to continue to extend until August 20th - but we can't guarantee that!

Anyway, those eager to get a pre-order locked in for this one can do so now, with the above discount applied on the Xbox Store. If you are one of those people, it might be worth clearing some storage space for the download - Black Myth: Wukong is showing up as a 110GB Xbox Series X|S install via the Xbox mobile app.
