It is near the end of 2024, and NetEase Games has released a broadcast teasing everything 2025 has to look forward to for Once Human. This includes three scenarios, features such as Custom Servers and the Lunar Oracle that powers enemies and makes players go insane, plus a special mobile announcement.

Q3 2025 will see the three new scenarios released into rotation. Code: Purification will see you trying to clear corrupted areas, with multiple outcomes depending on how well you do. Code: Deviation sounds basically like Pokemon, where you catch Deviations, fuse them into new ones, and battle them against other players in tournaments. Finally, Code: Broken is a PvP free-for-all, set across ten days with random events occurring, and superweapons available to build.

Now that is all well and good, but why does that matter to us? That is because, dear reader, a firm mobile launch date has been announced. Or you know, firm-ish. Once humans comesd to handheld devices in April 2025, if you don’t have a mobile, then it's a bit weird that you are visiting this mobile site, but regardless! NetEase is looking to give away an iPhone in celebration.

By pre-registering on the official site you will be entered into the Lucky Draw for prizes such as an iPhone Pro Mac, Sony XM5 Headphones, an Xbox Controller, and more. You can earn more entries by completing draw tasks. There is a list of draw probabilities and the iPhone is hilariously low at 0.0019999999998%, so good luck!

At the time of writing over 25 million players have signed up, unlocking a host of in-game bonuses for everyone. This includes a bevvy of items to start you off well, two Butterfly’s Emissary Crates, and most importantly, a Mystic Furniture which is a stuffed sheep. All that is left is the 30M target for an assault rifle cosmetic, so why not join and help out?

You can pre-order Once Human on the App Store and Google Play.
