Trivia

Original Wukong

• The old Chinese splash art features several elements from the original Sun Wukong's tale.
  • The water dragon (which is also featured in the Jade Dragon's artwork) may exist a reference to the exiled Dragon prince who swallowed Sanzang's mountain in the Journey to the W, causing Wukong to fight against it. Said Dragon prince in some adaptations of the original novel would actually get a group member with Wukong as Sanzang'southward substitute mount.
  • The glowing crescent moon on Wukong'due south forehead references the original hooplet the original Sunday Wukong wore.

Volcanic Wukong

• This peel shares the Infernal theme with:

• It may be a reference to Journeying to the Due west's aforementioned prequel story, when Sunday Wukong was locked in a cauldron past the Taoist Lao Tzu AKA Taishang Laojun (on behalf of the Jade Emperor to assist in executing him as no options were left) to be distilled by astringent, sacred fires for 40–l days straight to exist turned into an elixir. But when Lao Tzu opened the lid, Wukong was live and stronger than ever with a newfound power Jīnjīng Huǒyǎn (金睛火眼, lit. Gold Student Burn down Eyes) which enabled him to see evil (just gave him a weakness to smoke).
  • With this in heed, Wukong'due south weapon via this skin is instead a broken, molten pillar, a possible piece of the remains from the said confinement.
• The skin may besides be a reference to a character/Pokémon from the Pokémon serial, Infernape (Japanese original: ゴウカザル; Goukazaru), who was said to be based on Sun Wukong besides.
• Information technology also coincidentally parallels the Rajang of the Monster Hunter series, as not only does the Rajang bear reference to the Saiyans of Dragon Ball lore (via the other Wukong/Gokuu from that series), the more stronger variations of the species tend to reside in volcanic areas.
• in the Philippine server, Volcanic Wukong'due south price is reduced to i RP in society to heighten awareness nigh the recent Taal Volcano eruption, a volcano in the Philippines

General Wukong

• This skin as well plays nod to some traditional armor Sun Wukong wore during the same prequel tale, due to having a more notable state of war-motif throughout most of the story with him fighting against the heavens. It also nods to the more than famous title of Wukong equally well, the Qitian Dasheng (齊天大聖, lit. Equaling-Heaven Great-Sage).
• The many meteors raining down in the splash art may be a reference to the birthplace of Wukong, known as Huaguoshan (花果山, lit. Flower Fruit Mountain), which was under attack during said tale.
• Wukong's famous headband/coronet from Journey to the Due west appears about his forehead in this splash art, along with Wukong'southward other skins, save for his Volcanic peel and his Classic skin. The name of this coronet is the Jingu'er (緊箍児, lit. Tightening Hooplet).
  • The shape of the coronet on General Wukong'southward caput resembles the "coronets" worn by 2 of Wukong's original companions, Zhu Bajie (豬八戒, lit. Pig of Eight Precepts, and Sha Wujing (沙悟凈, lit. Sand [man] Awakened to Purity).
• The very starting time version of his splash art had a symbol resembling the logo from Quake on his forehead before it was edited to reduce the resemblance .
• The skin's bio first debut in Wild Rift. It is a reference to Journey to the Due west.

Jade Dragon Wukong

• This skin shares the Lunar Revel theme with:

• He was released in commemoration of Lunar Revel 2012 (Twelvemonth of the Dragon) along with:
• He wears Chinese jade, which is ordinarily carved in the form of a dragon.
  • Carved-jade objects is regarded to beingness intrinsically valuable. They are metaphorically equated with human virtues because of their hardness, durability, and (moral) beauty.
• In this skin, Wukong possesses a coronet that is more classically styled akin to the ane worn by the original Sun Wukong.

Underworld Wukong

• This pare shares the Death Sworn theme with:

• He was released in commemoration of Harrowing 2014 forth with:
• He resembles a typical Shadow Isles champion in appearance.
  • This pare's concept used to exist called "Shadow Isles Wukong." As such, this peel is meant to bear witness how information technology would be if Wukong was a Shadow Isles champion, just similar how Void Buzz is meant to show how information technology would be if he was a Voidborn champion.
• This skin shares casual ties to the original Sunday Wukong once more, who in the original Journey to the West novel was once sentenced to natural death via his name beingness written in the Volume of Expiry during his prequel chapter. Wukong soon erased his own name, granting him immortality from natural death.

Radiant Wukong

• This skin shares the Lunar Revel theme with:

• He was released in celebration of Lunar Revel 2016 (Year of the Monkey) along with:
• His smoke clouds were inspired by traditional Chinese and Japanese artworks.
• This pare was not fabricated a Legacy peel as opposed to the other 2016 Lunar Revel skins due to his previously released skin, Underworld Wukong , beingness a Legacy skin.^[1]
• The skin is besides a possible nod to the original Wukong's armor during his prequel tale as aforementioned with his General Wukong skin, due to including the pheasant feather-tail crown every bit seen in some portrayals of the said armor.
  • Wukong also wears an orangish, sleeveless martial arts outfit with a blue chugalug, while besides having vivid-spiky pilus/fur. This makes Wukong resemble the Super Saiyan transformation from the Dragon Brawl franchise, which was seen accomplished first by the Dominicus Wukong/Son Gokuu of that series, as well as his iconic orange, blueish-banded Turtle Schoolhouse gi.
• The only few differences this skin has with his other skins is one extra new quote, and a high movement speed animation.
