Calligraphic Design for Wukong Black Myth vol.5 – Character Profile Visual Enhancement

Here is another piece of fan art following my last project. I tried applying Chinese calligraphy skills and aesthetics to writing alphabet calligraphy. I also made a simply comparison then you can see the effect easily. Hope it will inspire the team and lots of Wukong fans.

As you know recently the new demo of Wukong Black Myth was released. By using new UE5 the 3D effects and motions are highly impressive. Can’t wait to see the final version.

The development of Wukong Black Myth catches the eyes globally. A a Chinese personally I think it’s a great opportunity to introduce our art and culture to the world. Although the team is paying efforts on importing many cultural elements in, I found that ONE IMPORTANT THING is still MISSING, that is the Chinese calligraphic design.

Perhaps it’s still under development and too many things need to be dealed with at this stage. Like many successful Japanese games I hope the team can consider the calligraphic / font design more seriously. Instead of simply using stock fonts / templates, personally I highly suggest the team to think of the designs based on hand-drawing, because calligraphy 书法 is something like the core value of Asian aesthetics.

I look forward to further typography design in the next stage game development.
