Black Myth Wukong Compatibility Mode: How to Enable

Black Myth Wukong’s compatibility mode is a launch option that disables high-end graphical features to improve stability on older or lower-spec PCs. If you’re experiencing lag, frequent crashes, black screens, or the game won’t launch at all, enabling compatibility mode can help. However, this comes at a cost: you’ll see reduced visual fidelity and potentially a lower frame rate compared to the default mode. It’s best to try the default mode first and only switch to compatibility if you encounter problems. Note that compatibility mode is only available on PC, not on consoles.

Enabling Compatibility Mode on Steam

Launch Black Myth Wukong from your Steam library as usual. You should see a pop-up asking you to choose between “Play Black Myth Wukong” and “Play Black Myth Wukong (compatibility mode).” Select the latter if you need it. If the pop-up doesn’t appear, click the Manage icon (the gear) on the game’s page, go to Properties, and find the launch options under the General tab. From there, you can pick compatibility mode. You can switch modes at any time by exiting the game and restarting it with a different launch option.

Enabling Compatibility Mode on Epic Games Store

Open your Epic Games Store library, find Black Myth Wukong, click the three-dot menu, and choose Manage. Scroll down to the launch options section and enable compatibility mode. The process mirrors Steam’s but is accessed through Epic’s interface.
