It is worth noting that while pre-ordering any of the four editions nets you the base game and the pre-order bonuses, you only get the additional goodies once you order the deluxe editions or the collector’s edition.

Furthermore, only the deluxe and collector’s edition will grant you physical rewards. It also has quirks; you only get a digital deluxe game code for Black Myth Wukong on Steam. So, you technically have an empty Steelbook case you can flaunt in your collection.

As for platform availability, the standard and digital deluxe editions of Black Myth Wukong are available for PC and PlayStation 5. However, the physical deluxe and collector’s edition pre-orders are only for the PC version. This decision has certainly made quite a few gamers scratch their head.

Which Version of Black Myth Wukong Is Perfect for You?

Now comes the important part – which edition of Black Myth Wukong should you pre-order? Honestly, it boils down to what you want to get. If you don’t care about physical trinkets and the physical editions aren’t available in your region, your best bet is to go for the standard edition. It gives you the entire game to enjoy!

The digital deluxe is perfect if you care about the additional items, like the in-game rewards and the soundtrack. However, if you have spare money and live in a region where the editions are physically available, you can purchase the deluxe or collector’s editions.

With this, we hope you aren’t confused anymore and enjoy the magical adventure of Sun Wukong through Black Myth Wukong. Let us know which edition you plan to buy in the comments below.
