Zhu Bajie, the Iconic Pigsy from Black Myth: Wukong
Black Myth: Wukong introduces a diverse array of anthropomorphic characters, including the central figure of Zhu Bajie, also known as Pigsy, who assumes a crucial supporting role within the narrative.
Zhu Bajie is a prominent character in the classic tale Journey to the West, accompanying Tang Sangzang on an epic mission to uncover ancient Buddhist scriptures. His character is defined by a lustful and gluttonous disposition, leading to his transformation into a humanoid pig, hence the name Pigsy.
In Black Myth: Wukong, Pigsy plays a vital role in aiding the protagonist, the Destined One, in the quest to retrieve Sun Wukong’s relics. Staying true to his literary roots, Pigsy maintains a gruff and boisterous personality, yet he exhibits a sense of regret for his past misdeeds, particularly concerning his former love, the Violet Spider, and their child. Cursed to endure numerous romantic misfortunes, Zhu Bajie embarks on a poignant journey of self-acceptance, providing both comic relief and formidable distractions in battles alongside the player. However, players should be ready for intense encounters where they must face Pigsy in challenging duels that will truly test their skills.
