Once Human Tests Cross-Play on Mobile, PC Before Launch

Once Human Cross-Play Test Launches Ahead of April Mobile Release

NetEase's post-apocalyptic shooter Once Human kicks off its inaugural cross-play test today, giving players their first look at upcoming cross-progression features ahead of its April mobile launch. While currently in closed beta, this test confirms seamless progression between devices.

Cross-Platform Testing Begins

After making waves with Marvel Rivals, NetEase turns attention back to its eldritch horror shooter Once Human, which recently launched on PC. Today marks the start of cross-platform testing - our clearest indication yet that the long-promised mobile version is nearing completion.

The game thrusts players into a shattered world where humanity struggles against supernatural threats. Survivors must band together, scavenge resources, and rebuild civilization while confronting both monstrous entities and potential human enemies.

Once Human has generated significant buzz with its striking visual design and unique blend of horror and shooter mechanics. While previous beta tests focused on core gameplay, this cross-play trial offers players their first opportunity to experience the game's promised device-agnostic progression system.

Final Hands-On Before Launch

The test runs through March 30th, with registrations still open for interested participants. This likely represents the last major testing phase before Once Human's anticipated April mobile release.

While Marvel Rivals dominates NetEase's PC strategy, Once Human seems tailor-made for mobile audiences with its accessible controls and visually engaging aesthetic. The imminent cross-platform functionality will let players transition smoothly between mobile and PC versions.

For another chilling gaming experience, don't miss our recent review of Black Salt Games' Dredge - a Lovecraftian fishing adventure that received Gold certification. Much like Once Human, it masterfully blends unsettling horror with addictive gameplay.
