How to download and use the Black Myth Wukong Benchmark Tool

How well does Black Myth: Wukong run on your machine?

Making sure your machine can run a game is always important before you purchase it, especially one as hefty and beautiful as Black Myth: Wukong. The developers were kind enough to create a Benchmark Tool that allows you to test your hardware before you play the game.

The Benchmark Tool for Black Myth: Wukong shouldn’t take you longer than 10 minutes to download to ensure your machine can run the game. The download may take longer than the use of the tool, though. After it’s done, you’ll have a good idea if your computer hardware can withstand the graphics and breakneck speeds of Black Myth: Wukong, making sure it’s a worthwhile purchase.

You can download the Black Myth: Wukong Benchmark Tool by visiting the game’s Steam Page. If you don’t have a Steam account, you’ll need to create one if you want to use the tool. It shouldn’t take too long, and the Benchmark Tool is free. After you add it to your library and download it, launch the Benchmark Tool to begin the process. You’re likely waiting for the review embargo, too.

The application is a rather straightforward process. Once you’ve launched the Black Myth: Wukong Benchmark Tool, it’s time to let the application work its magic and go through certain areas of the game to test your machine. This is primarily why the application takes up eight gigabytes of memory on your hard drive. It needs to go through areas of the actual game to ensure your setup can handle it. We recommend not running any other applications simultaneously while the Benchmark Tool works its magic.
