Black Myth: Wukong’s Compatibility Mode Saves PCs From Black Screens & Crashes

Black Myth: Wukong‘s Compatibility Mode is saving the day for many PC users who have been experiencing black screens and crashes on PC. The mode, which is easily available when booting the game, lessens the impact of the demanding Unreal Engine 5 title. For those experiencing frustrating issues, the game’s Compatibility Mode option could be the easy fix they need.

How to fix Black Myth: Wukong’s black screen and crashing issues on PC

Fixing Black Myth: Wukong’s black screen and crashing issues on PC can be as simple as ensuring that there are no conflicting programs, like overlays, causing a crash, or lowering the settings to allow your PC to run the game more comfortably.

One potential easy fix is to enable the game’s Compatibility Mode. This is done by attempting to launch the game and then selecting “Play Black Myth: Wukong (Compatibility Mode).”

Other potential fixes include restarting your PC, reinstalling the game, running the game as an administrator, updating your graphics card driver, and/or disabling any overclocks.

What does Black Myth: Wukong’s Compatibility Mode do?

The clue is in the name with Black Myth: Wukong’s Compatibility Mode, as it helps make the game more compatible with a wider range of systems. These modes often involve disabling cutting-edge technologies that, while making the game look impressive, can be too demanding for lower-end systems.

For those with less-powerful systems and/or those who want the smoothest crash-free experience possible, opting for the Compatibility Mode could be a sensible choice.

With the game having only just launched, it’s possible that fixes rolled out by the developer in the coming days, weeks, and months, will help make the game more stable without the need for Compatibility Mode to be enabled.

Despite some users experiencing crashing issues, Black Myth: Wukong has an “Overwhelmingly Positive” rating on Steam. This contrasts heavily with Hunt: Shadow 1896, whose reviews have plummeted to “Mostly Negative.”
