Game Science’s Black Myth: Wukong has, as expected, topped the PlayStation Store downloads in August. Considering the game has sold over 18 million copies across the PS5 and PC, this isn’t that shocking.

Coming to us straight from PlayStation Blog Japan, it shows that here in the US and in Canada, Black Myth: Wukong takes the top spot. Second and third place go to the latest NFL game and College Football 25.

Over in Japan, though, the downloads are a bit different. In fact, only three of the 10 games appear on both — Black Myth, Hogwarts Legacy, and Star Wars Outlaws. Game Science’s Chinese mythological romp still heads the pack, meanwhile, Gundam Breaker 4 and Visions of Mana take up the second and third spots.

Black Myth: Wukong, the much-anticipated Journey to the West adaptation from Chinese game developer Game Science is gonna be a pretty beefy file size for PS owners. That said, it’s unfortunately not rare for games to enter the triple digits.

As pointed out by Push Square, the monkey-based romp gobbles up 104GB. It’s worth pointing out that all footage of the game does give us a clue as to why it’s earmarked with such a large file size. The short end is it’s a graphically intense game built on Unreal Engine 5.

While newer models of the PS5 come bundled with a terabyte of storage, those (like the author here) running the base model from launch are going to have to allocate space for this large game here when it launches on August 20.
