One of the standout features of this mode is the dynamic track design. With each playthrough offering fresh obstacles and layouts, no two runs are alike. It’s a fast-paced, heart-pounding test of endurance where your ability to maintain speed and traverse distance will determine your score. And as you climb the leaderboards, you’ll only be competing against your friends, making this a true battle for bragging rights.

But it’s not just about speed—it’s also about the rewards. With the purchase of Endless Moto Mode, you’ll immediately receive the Design Void Motorcycle Skin, a sleek, futuristic ride that stands out on any track. Plus, as you progress and rack up higher scores, you’ll unlock even more exclusive cosmetic rewards like the Neon Strike Hand Skin, Neon Strike Sword Skin, and Design Neon Motorcycle Skin.

As the sole investor and publishing partner of Game Science, Hero Games took significant losses, but Wu didn’t shy away in 2018 when Feng, now his late-night League of Legends teammate, reached out for more money to craft an ambitious project then codenamed Black Myth One.

It won’t take another six years for the next chapter in what’s planned to be a series based on Chinese mythology — though that won’t be a sequel, Wu said. Game Science is working on an expansion to Wukong, which will give it a chance to monetize the game a second time. 2022’s Elden Ring, a title with similar play style and design, has shown how the release of an expansion — this year’s Shadow of the Erdtree — can spur a fresh flurry of sales for the original.
