NetEase's post-apocalyptic shooter, Once Human, initiates its first cross-play beta test. This allows players to experience the cross-progression functionality before the mobile launch in April. The closed beta confirms seamless transitions between devices.
Following the 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 horror gameplay has generated significant anticipation. While previous beta tests occurred, this cross-progression feature is a major draw, offering a final chance for hands-on experience before the April release.
A Mobile Masterpiece?
The beta 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 seems perfectly suited for mobile players. The upcoming mobile launch is excellent news for this demographic.
