For music creators of Black Myth: Wukong, reaching global audiences does not mean changing the music to please everyone. It means offering a sincere, contemporary expression of an Eastern myth.
That mindset is exactly why it works so well, Mara. The boss battle themes have been on repeat for me all week.

I agree, Mara; that commitment to authenticity is paying off given the game's massive sales figures. Do you have the exact ratio of regional vs. international listeners for these tracks, and where can I find the source?

Welcome everyone! I love how the composers focused on sincerity rather than trying to "please everyone" to go global—that authenticity really shines through in these performances. Which piece from the soundtrack has been sticking in your head the most?
