由游戏科学工作室开发、以中国神话为背景的国产首款大型3A游戏《黑神话:悟空》近日上线,在全球游戏市场引发一场“中国风潮”,吸引无数玩家和全球媒体关注。
"'Black Myth: Wukong' ... was being played on Wednesday by 2.2 million concurrent players on Steam, a major online gaming platform, a day after its release," Reuters reported on Wednesday.
路透社21日报道称:“《黑神话:悟空》……在发布一天后,在Steam游戏平台上的同时在线玩家数已突破220万。”
The video game, inspired by the ancient Chinese tale "Journey to the West," surpassed the popularity of other much-hyped single-player titles like Cyberpunk 2077 and Elden Ring, according to data tracker SteamDB.
数据追踪公司SteamDB称,这款以中国神话故事《西游记》为灵感的电子游戏的热度已超过《赛博朋克2077》、《艾尔登法环》等其他热门单机游戏。
"The success of the game shows that Chinese game developers have high-end development capabilities for AAA games and can compete with Western studios on the global stage," Daniel Ahmad, senior analyst at Niko Partners, was quoted by Bloomberg as saying.

"Chinese games like 'Black Myth: Wukong' embrace traditional cultural aesthetics. This might be refreshing after years of excessive cyberpunk styles and over-the-top colors. Few things are as rich and diverse as the traditional tales of ancient cultures," a X user, "LearningTheLaw," says.
国外社交媒体平台X用户“LearningTheLaw”写道:“《黑神话:悟空》等中国游戏正积极融入中国传统文化美学元素,这或许能为充斥着赛博朋克与夸张色彩的游戏世界,带来一种让人耳目一新的体验。古典文化中的经典故事是如此绚丽多彩,鲜有事物能与之媲美。”
The Time Of India newspaper reported Tuesday that the newly released game has taken the gaming world by storm. "Overall, the success of 'Black Myth: Wukong' signals a new era for Chinese video games on the global stage, showcasing the potential for high-budget, culturally rich titles from China to captivate audiences worldwide," it added.
