New Activities and Anomalies in Once Human

The authors of the online action game about the adventures of meta-humans among the ruins of cities overrun by monsters have reached out after the New Year holidays. They did this to present the details of the first major update for Once Human in 2026. Among other things, Starry employees drew fans' attention to the added anomalies, features, unexpected enemy mutations, events, and weapons created specifically for the patch. We'll go into detail about how the action game has changed in January.

The merging of dimensions has spawned new creatures that metas are forced to confront. The Renegades, descendants of Mother Nova, hover in the sky above infected zones, creating anomalies capable of luring and destroying humans. Heroes will not only need to explore these territories but also alter their genome using alien substance to ultimately cleanse the locations of infection. It's also worth keeping in mind that dangerous zones are divided by difficulty levels—players will need to assess their capabilities before each battle. And some of these locations feature bosses—symbiotic hippos that are better hunted in groups rather than alone.

The «Deviants' Feast» activity involves collecting especially valuable ore that appears at random points on the map. Acquiring this resource won't be straightforward, as monsters are sure to appear near the miners—and players will have to fight them. The longer the ore collection lasts, the more enemies will swarm around the heroes, so at some point, they'll need to cut their losses and retreat. But there's good news—players can gain additional upgrades by using one of twelve sprouts that temporarily grant the bearer special powers. Most importantly, these sprouts provide all characters with resistance to infection.
