Once Human Unveils Cross-Platform Testing for Mobile and PC Ahead of Launch

by Joshua Apr 09,2025

NetEase's highly-anticipated post-apocalyptic shooter, Once Human, is set to launch its first cross-play test, marking a significant step towards its upcoming mobile release in April. This closed beta will allow players to experience the seamless cross-progression feature, enabling them to switch effortlessly between devices.

In Once Human, players find themselves in a world ravaged by a supernatural apocalypse. The game challenges survivors to unite, explore the desolate landscape, gather resources, rebuild society, and confront the terrifying creatures that now dominate the earth. However, players must also navigate the complexities of human relationships, which can be just as challenging as the monstrous threats.

The game's appeal lies in its stunning visuals combined with intense, horror-infused shooting mechanics. While Once Human has already undergone several beta tests on PC, this cross-play test is crucial for perfecting the cross-progression feature, which is expected to be a game-changer for mobile players. This might be the last opportunity for players to get hands-on with Once Human before its official launch.

Although Once Human may not have captured a large PC audience, especially with the success of NetEase's Marvel Rivals, it is poised to thrive on mobile platforms, where its stylish shooting mechanics are likely to resonate well with players.
