Exciting News for Console Gamers from Once Human

Whew, okay, so here’s the deal with “Once Human.” I remember when they first tossed this thing onto the PC scene back in July 2024, and boy, did it make a splash. Seriously, 230K people jumped in simultaneously just on Steam. Think about that. Like a full-blown digital party. And now? It’s crawling its way to PlayStation and Xbox, set for 2026. Why so long, you ask? Beats me. Game dev stuff, maybe. Or maybe they just like keeping us guessing.

Anyway, Starry Studio, the brains behind this, is owned by NetEase. Sound familiar? They’re the folks who gave us Marvel Rivals, among other hits. But “Once Human,” oh man, it’s been keeping its crowd. Even today, around 30K players are duking it out daily. Something about it just keeps them coming back. Updates, maybe? I’m not a game dev, but something’s working, right?

Zoom forward to July 2, 2025. Big news drop! They threw a little showcase party (virtual, of course) and told everyone the game is nearly ready for the consoles. PlayStation and Xbox players can hop on board soon-ish, and get this, they’ve got those exclusive launch goodies lined up. I guess it pays to wishlist? Or maybe it’s just a sneaky marketing move. Who knows?

Folks already playing on PC or mobile won’t have to start over. Thank the gaming gods for that. Seamless account stuff, they say. Just… some catching up for the console versions. Honestly, a bit like when you’re late to a party and everyone’s already two drinks in.

Now, speaking of expanding horizons, they’re eyeing those console users. Seems like they’ve kinda mastered the mobile realm with shiny ratings on Android and iOS. Console’s next, baby! Fingers crossed they pull it off again. Oh, and that Version 2.0 update? Dropped right with that livestream. New class system, PvE scenario, Dreamland event – just a bunch of stuff to sink your teeth into.

Guess that’s it. If you’re itching for more, just keep an eye on their website or something. They’re bound to drop more news soon. Or not. You know how it is. Game world keeps turning.
