NetEase Games, the online games division of NetEase Inc., and Starry Studio announced that the next PC beta test for the game Once Human will begin on December 6th. Beta participants will be able to experience several features from the game before its 2024 launch, including open-world exploration, weapon crafting, base building, PvE combat, PvP battles, and more.

Additionally, to mark the start of the beta test, Starry Studio released a 9-minute trailer showcasing the game’s unique world and enemies. The trailer follows players as they track anomalies, capture them, and secure powerful rewards and special abilities. During their journey, players will fight against the Aberrants and others in PvP using a diverse array of weapons and equipment.

Once Human is a free-to-play supernatural survival multiplayer game. In this world altered by Stardust, living beings have mutated into terrifying Aberrants, monsters with supernatural abilities. Players take on the role of a Meta, a soldier defending the last surviving remnants of humanity from the growing Aberrant threat while uncovering the secrets of the Stardust contamination to stop it once and for all.

To aid in the fight against the dangers in Once Human, players can collect resources, hunt, fish, and build a base. They are not limited to constant battles in the same locations, as they can use a Camper to explore the open world. The Camper can be upgraded, turning it into a mobile base that combines combat and survival, allowing players a well-deserved rest between conflicts.

The servers will go live around 3:00 AM in Europe and 6:00 PM Pacific Time (US). No activation code is required for this beta test. Simply download the game directly from the official website to gain access: https://oncehuman.game/.
