'Once Human' Launches Console Version on August 26, Unveils October Expansion 'Isles of Abyss'

NetEase Games has officially launched console platform services for Once Human and will introduce its largest-ever new expansion this coming October.

NetEase Games announced that the console version of Once Human officially launched on August 26, 2026, accompanied by various commemorative launch events. This console version is available as a free-to-play title on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S platforms.

The Once Human console version features vast playable content offering over 300 hours of gameplay. To enhance immersion tailored to console control schemes, a new 'first-person perspective' system has been introduced, supporting seamless switching with the existing 'third-person perspective' mode. In addition, full cross-play and cross-progression linking platform progress have been seamlessly implemented, allowing mobile and PC (Personal Computer) users to join the console environment without restrictions.

Platform-specific exclusive benefits are also offered in abundance. Xbox Game Pass members can obtain an exclusive avatar, cosmetic trial vouchers, discount coupon packs, and 'Battle Pass XP Cards', with rewarded outfits updating every month. PlayStation 5 users can directly feel textural differences across terrains, such as wet concrete or desert sand, as well as trigger resistance when drawing a bowstring, via the DualSense controller's haptic feedback. Furthermore, low-frequency vibrations during giant monster combat and precision targeting technology dedicated to boss monster encounters have been integrated to improve control convenience.

Meanwhile, through the Gamescom Opening Night trailer video, 'Isles of Abyss', the largest-ever new ocean region expansion, was unveiled. Arriving across all platforms in October 2026, 'Isles of Abyss' delivers a survival experience set against islands, the ocean surface, and deep-sea environments. In a vibrant ocean, players must face threatening elements such as watchtowers, ghost ships, and mechanical beasts, while sequentially modifying various vehicles starting from a basic wooden raft to build unique sea fortresses.

Details on the console version launch and update information can be checked on the official website and official Naver Lounge.
