After closing out last year's Gamescom Opening Night Live with the surprise reveal of Black Myth: Zhong Kui, developer Game Science strongly implied there'd be a long wait before we'd see more of its follow-up to the global breakout success of Black Myth: Wukong—a success that was, nonetheless, dogged by the controversy surrounding its studio's sexist history.

Just under a year later, it turns out that wait wasn't so long after all. Earlier today, Game Science released a 15-minute gameplay trailer for Black Myth: Zhong Kui, providing our first look at its player character, how he fights, and what tapestry of foes inspired by Chinese mythology and folklore he'll face.
