I can’t say I normally pay close attention to the Computer Entertainment Developers Conference (CEDEC), but this year (as spotted by Twitter user gosokkyu), it is presenting the Engineering Division Award for Excellence to Hitoshi Iizawa for their very important work in arcade emulation.

Handheld gaming consoles are rocking the market again, in no small part thanks to the success of the Nintendo Switch nearly eight years ago. But for all the technological marvels these powerful computers bring today, they’re really just rehashing time-tested formulas, at least when it comes to the way we see and interact with games. Just like with much of computing, we’re simply seeing images rendered on a flat screen rather than the way we naturally see and interact with the world in three dimensions. Mixed reality and spatial computing are trying to challenge the status quote when it comes to typical computing scenarios, while this concept for a unique kind of console proposes a literally different perspective when it comes to the video games we play.

Spirits are an interesting part of Black Myth: Wukong, allowing you to take on the form of defeated enemies and use their skills against your enemies. This is how to do it. You will need to play through the game until you reach the Snake Trail in Bamboo Grove.

The very first enemy you meet who is likely to drop this is the Wandering Wight, a tough enemy at the very start of the game. Should you defeat him early, before you have the Gourd upgrade, you can absorb any missed spirits from the main menu in a Shrine.
