Yaoguai Cores are a crafting material you can track down while exploring Black Myth: Wukong. Early on in the game, they’re essential to unlock improved weapons, making you even more powerful against your foes, but finding them can be tricky.

A Yaoguai Core does not drop from a standard enemy. Instead, it’s best to find them by defeating some of the more formidable enemies you can find on your journey. It means you must explore the optional pathways to track them down. These include challenging the optional bosses in Black Myth: Wukong and dispatching them for a Yaoguai Core. The upgrades to your equipment are well worth it.
