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

by Zoe May 27,2025

NetEase's post-apocalyptic shooter, Once Human, is set to excite fans with its first cross-play test, marking a significant step towards its upcoming mobile launch in April. This closed beta not only offers a sneak peek into the game's cross-progression features but also promises seamless transitions between devices, enhancing the gaming experience across platforms.

Once Human plunges players into a world ravaged by a supernatural apocalypse, where survival hinges on cooperation and resilience. As players navigate this haunting landscape, their mission is clear: gather resources, rebuild society, and combat the monstrous beings that have taken over. Yet, the path to recovery is fraught with challenges, not least from other survivors who might hinder progress as much as help it.

The anticipation surrounding Once Human is palpable, fueled by its stunning graphics and thrilling mix of horror and action-packed gameplay. Previous beta tests have set the stage, but the introduction of cross-progression is poised to be a game-changer, offering players the flexibility to continue their adventures across different devices. This could very well be the last chance for players to get hands-on with the game before its official release.

ytMore human than humanThe cross-play test is scheduled to run until March 30th, with sign-ups still open for eager participants. While Once Human may not have captured the PC gaming community as much as NetEase's other hit, Marvel Rivals, its appeal to mobile gamers is undeniable. The promise of a stylish shooter optimized for mobile, coupled with the imminent launch, is a thrilling prospect for fans.
