Where is Black Myth: Wukong set?
2024 video game developed by Game Science
Black Myth: Wukong (2024): 40 real places its Wikipedia article names as the setting, in China. Wikidata’s own statement stops at the country, so this is prose rather than a statement, and it is labelled that way below. Where the game takes place, not where it was made: a game is filmed nowhere, so this is the only kind of location it has.

Places per Chinese Wikipedia's 取景 section
Chinese Wikipedia’s 取景 section names 40 places. A sentence in an article is weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, so these are listed apart, never mixed into the statement list, and the claim links straight to where it came from.

Why there is no pin
Wikidata records this game as set in China, and nothing finer. That is true and it is not a place: a dot in the middle of it would claim something nobody wrote, so the statement is left as a sentence.
This page exists because that is a better answer than silence. If a real place belongs here, it can be added to Wikidata, and this page fills in on the next rebuild.

Frequently asked questions
How many places is Black Myth: Wukong set in?
No place recorded on Wikidata, but 40 places from a Wikipedia setting category, labelled per Wikipedia.
Was Black Myth: Wukong filmed anywhere?
No. A game is filmed nowhere, so the places on this page are where its story is set, from Wikidata's narrative location and from Wikipedia's setting categories.
Where does this information come from?
Narrative location statements on Wikidata, and the setting categories Wikipedia editors file the work under, which are labelled per Wikipedia. Nothing is guessed from the plot.
