Can you go back to previous chapters in Black Myth Wukong and replay sections again? As you defeat Black Bear Guai at the end of chapter one, you’re given the option to continue. This choice may leave you feeling a little nervous about progressing forward, as it’s not clear in Black Myth Wukong if you can ever go back. While we answer the question below about whether you can, in fact, go back to previous areas in Black Myth Wukong and replay chapters, it’s a bit of an unusual situation.
Can you go back to previous chapters in Black Myth Wukong and replay them?
You can't replay previous chapters in Black Myth Wukong, but you can return to the areas of previous chapters even after you leave them, which you do by using the fast travel system at the checkpoints.
This means that players exploring Black Myth Wukong can indeed go back to old areas like the Black Wind Mountain even after they've completed the main story there, to find secrets, missed optional boss fights, treasure, or just converse with essential vendors and merchants specific to those areas (like the drunken monkey who upgrades your gourd).
However, while you can return to those areas, there is no way to replay completed content - meaning that once you've killed a boss, there's no way to fight them again, or return to earlier sections of the story. So while you can't replay the chapter, you can still go back to old haunts and experience the stuff you missed before - unless you're willing to start a whole new game, of course.
