Once Human now available on mobile devices

After a much-anticipated wait, NetEase's thrilling new game, Once Human, has finally hit mobile devices, available on both iOS and Android platforms starting today. Originally launched on PC, the mobile version of Once Human has been eagerly awaited, and now players can dive into an immersive world filled with supernatural phenomena and an arsenal of modern weaponry.

Set on the continent of Nekot, you take on the role of a Transcendent, one of the few survivors in a world decimated by apocalyptic supernatural events. But fear not, as you'll be equipped with guns and gadgets rather than swords and sorcery, bringing a fresh twist to the survival genre.

One of the standout features of Once Human is its expansive open world, covering an impressive 256 square kilometers. This vast landscape is filled with diverse biomes and locations waiting to be explored. Whether you're into fishing, farming, or combat, there's something for everyone. Engage in PvE battles against monstrous creatures or test your skills in PvP encounters with other players, depending on your preference.

More human than human
Once Human's blend of a futuristic aesthetic and its extensive gameplay mechanics is likely a key reason for its high anticipation. Coupled with a positive reception from even the most discerning PC gamers, it's a title that's definitely worth exploring. The game's deep weapon customization system is a dream come true for weapon enthusiasts, adding a layer of depth and personalization to the experience.

Whether you're looking to team up with friends to establish your own base or prefer to build your dream apocalypse home solo, Once Human caters to both cooperative and solitary playstyles. Its gritty and immersive atmosphere appeals to those seeking a more intense gaming experience, yet it remains packed with fun and engaging activities.
