NetEase Games Announces Roadmap for 2025 for 'Once Human'

Mobile Version Releases in April, New Scenario Three Types to be Introduced in Q3

NetEase Games' popular survival game "Once Human" unveiled major update plans for 2025 through an official year-end broadcast on the 19th. The presentation included a variety of contents, including the release of mobile versions, the addition of new scenarios, and the introduction of custom server functions.

The new scenarios to be added during the third quarter of next year were released under the names of 'Code: Purification', 'Code: Variant', and 'Code: Collapse'. "Code: Purification" provides an open ending where the ending varies depending on the player's choice against the backdrop of world pollution. "Code: Variant" focuses on interactions with variants, providing content that earns special rewards from fostering powerful variants and participating in tournaments. "Code: Collapse" is a free PVP scenario characterized by collecting resources in chaos to produce powerful weapons and compete for survival.

"Once Human Mobile," which is scheduled to be released in April 2025, has cross-play support and high compatibility. The development team also announced its plan to release the console version and said it is developing it with the aim of playing on all platforms.

On January 16, a new game system called "Visional Wheel" will be added. This system enables new strategies and challenges in the game. In particular, the content of "Luna Oracle: The Trust of the Moon" will test players' ability to survive along with environmental changes and offer a variety of reward items.

In the first half of 2025, a "custom server" function will be added that allows players to set their own game environment. In addition, an 'early access server' that allows users to experience new content before launching will be introduced.

Launched in July, "Once Human" is gaining huge popularity in the global market and remains at the top of the Steam popularity ranking in Korea. The development team announced its plan to continue improving the game environment and expanding content through continuous communication with users. NetEase Games' announcement seems to be a strategic move by 'Once Human' to strengthen its position in the global market and expand its fan base in 2025.
