How to use compatibility mode
In short, Black Myth Wukong’s compatibility mode turns off certain features meant for high-end PCs, thus allowing you to play the game on an older setup. If you’re experiencing lag, frequent crashes, or black screens, activating compatibility mode could be the solution.
Before you enthusiastically activate compatibility mode though, make sure you really need it. After all, the game will have a lower framerate and look less beautiful. It’s best to try the default mode first and switch to compatibility if you experience the issues mentioned above. Note that compatibility mode is meant to make Black Myth Wukong accessible on all types of PC setups, so it’snot available on consoles.
