The game is packed with all kinds of memorable boss designs, though there are also many that are underwhelming and feel samey. In fact, there was one secret boss I found in Black Myth: Wukong that was literally a re-skin of a mini-boss found elsewhere in the chapter, which was a shame, and while many of the game's bosses are visually distinct, a lot of the actual fights feel the same. This may be due to the Destined One being limited to their staff, but I felt like I had seen everything the combat had to offer by the halfway point.

Players fight their way from shrine to shrine ( Black Myth 's equivalent to bonfires), killing enemies for XP and healing with a gourd that can only be used a limited number of times until it needs to be refilled. Gourds are refilled by resting at shrines/bonfires, an action that also refills the Destined One's health and mana and respawns all the enemies in the level. Levels are more linear than they are in FromSoftware's games, but there is still a maze-like quality to some of them, with branching paths and shortcuts to be found. The game has a major focus on difficult boss fights where players need to dodge as much as their stamina meter allows in order to avoid being hit. There are no difficulty options, so players are forced to master the game as it is if they hope to succeed.
