Analyzing Linguistic Landscapes from a Cross-Cultural Perspective: Taking Black Myth Wukong as an Example

Based on a cross-cultural perspective, this paper analyzes the linguistic landscape in the video game Black Myth: Wukong and explores its unique role in cultural communication. By analyzing the game's linguistic symbols, character language, interactive interface and sound effects and soundtrack, it reveals its successful strategy of integrating traditional Chinese cultural elements. The study shows that Black Myth: Wukong not only enhances the players' sense of cultural identity, but also promotes the international dissemination of Chinese culture through the cross-cultural integration of linguistic landscape construction. This study provides insights into the practice of video games in cross-cultural communication.

Abstract

Based on a cross-cultural perspective, this paper analyzes the linguistic landscape in the video game Black Myth: Wukong and explores its unique role in cultural communication. By analyzing the game's linguistic symbols, character language, interactive interface and sound effects and soundtrack, it reveals its successful strategy of integrating traditional Chinese cultural elements. The study shows that Black Myth: Wukong not only enhances the players' sense of cultural identity, but also promotes the international dissemination of Chinese culture through the cross-cultural integration of linguistic landscape construction. This study provides insights into the practice of video games in cross-cultural communication.
