Following the release of a 15-minute gameplay demo for Game Science's new title, Black MYTH - Steam Edition: Zhong Kui, today, the cast has sparked heated discussion among players. Model "Dai Zhili-" officially confirmed via his personal social media platforms that he served as the face model and facial capture actor for a character in the game.
Dai Zhili- could hardly contain his excitement in his post: "Hey everyone, did you watch the Black MYTH - Steam Edition: Zhong Kui demo today? Did you spot me? As someone who has always been passionate about games since childhood, seeing myself as a character fighting on screen was truly as thrilling as winning the lottery!"
Further digging by players revealed that Dai Zhili- has deep ties with Game Science. He previously served as a model for officially licensed Black MYTH - Steam Edition apparel, appearing multiple times in the brand's promotional materials, effectively becoming their "in-house" model. This coincidence led many players to joke that Game Science was keeping opportunities within the family.
With the release of the gameplay demo, Black MYTH - Steam Edition: Zhong Kui quickly ignited player anticipation with its unique dark aesthetics and Eastern supernatural style. Whether this new Eastern supernatural title can continue the success of Black MYTH - Steam Edition: Wukong remains to be seen, pending further gameplay reveals.
