This week’s episode of The TT Show kicks off with a discussion about the meteoric rise of ‘Black Myth: Wukong,’ an action RPG that’s quickly become one of the most popular and played single-player games on PC. Jak and Kosta delve into the game’s captivating blend of fast-paced combat, Souls-like mechanics, and stunning cinematic visuals, all set within a richly detailed world.
Gamescom, the year’s biggest gaming convention and conference, takes center stage in the episode. Jak and Kosta explore some of the show’s key highlights, including the surprise announcement of ‘Borderlands 4,’ a new ‘Mafia’ game, and Microsoft’s groundbreaking move to bring the previously exclusive ‘Indiana Jones and the Great Circle’ to PlayStation 5.
