During the Opening Night Live of Gamescom in the early hours of August 20, Game Science unveiled its latest title, Black Myth: Zhong Kui, releasing the first CG teaser trailer.  

Zhong Kui, a folk deity in Taoism, is specialized in vanquishing demons and exorcising evil spirits. Throughout history, numerous painters have depicted Zhong Kui in various forms—sometimes as part of a group, sometimes alone—with themes including escorting his sister, eliminating monsters, embarking on journeys, engaging in playful activities, and glaring in anger.
