NetEase's post-apocalyptic shooter, Once Human, initiates its first cross-play beta test. This closed beta allows players to experience the seamless cross-progression functionality slated for the mobile launch in April. The test confirms the ability to effortlessly switch between devices.
Following the recent success of Marvel Rivals, NetEase's PC release of Once Human, a co-op eldritch shooter, is finally making its way to mobile. The game casts players as survivors in a supernatural apocalypse, tasked with rebuilding society and combating monstrous threats. Even fellow survivors may pose challenges.
Once Human's blend of stunning visuals and intense run-and-gun gameplay has generated significant anticipation. While previous beta tests occurred, this cross-progression feature is a key selling point, offering a smooth transition between platforms. It also provides a valuable pre-release opportunity before the April launch.
A Mobile Masterpiece?
The beta test runs until March 30th, with registration still open. While Once Human might not have captured a large PC audience compared to NetEase's Marvel Rivals, its stylish gameplay appears ideally suited for mobile gamers. The upcoming mobile release is excellent news for this target audience.
For those seeking another thrilling gaming experience, consider Stephen's recent review of Black Salt Games' Dredge. This Lovecraftian-inspired fishing simulator blends horror and captivating gameplay, mirroring the appeal of Once Human.
