You can populate your games with these personas - either from your friends, from strangers, or from your favorite Twitch streamers. Some Personas are better than others depending on how far you’ve progressed in the game, and you get to decide what they look like, and what their AI personality will be. Personas are your in-game avatar, and each one has specific strengths and weaknesses you can select. It’s a refreshingly new take on 4X games like Civilization, and Humankind has another cool feature you won’t find anywhere else - Personas. In the Industrial Era, units will have to hide in trenches to avoid machine gun fire, and the introduction of tanks will break the stalemate. Combat is one way Humankind completely changes the way you play a 4X, with units that actually do special things, and war requires using varied units to fight across multiple hexes. If you want to win by being the very best agricultural society in the world, you can do that! Or, you can go the war route to defend your borders and see how warfare changes over the ages.

Instead of selecting your culture right from the start, you slowly evolve as time goes on - and your choices determine your playstyle. For now, it's an intriguing, though not always excelling, offshoot of a time-tested formula that succeeds at making me want to keep clicking one more turn.Humankind is a huge new 4X that’s shaking up the genre.

In IGN’s Humankind review, we said, “And maybe with time and DLC, Humankind will stand alongside the best of them as well. The console versions were set to launch on November 4, but now it looks like we’ll have to wait longer. Console ports were announced back in June, along with a second paid DLC called Cultures of Latin America. Humankind was first released on PC and Google Stadia in August 2021. In the meantime, anybody who has pre-purchased on digital storefronts will receive a refund where applicable in line with platform policy.” Unfortunately, we're not in a position to give a timeframe on a new release date right now, but we will update you all as soon as we can.

The studio continued, “We know this will be frustrating for many of you, but we believe this delay is for the best, as we want to make sure to provide the best possible experience to console players. We have more info in our blog, so if you have any questions feel free to leave them there👉 /ZMD0RqL7mn- HUMANKIND October 13, 2022 We're sorry to announce that the console version of #HumankindGame needs to be delayed. “We have to share some sad news with you today: We and our partner Aspyr Media have run into unexpected challenges in porting Humankind to consoles, and have to delay the release on Playstation 4/5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S until further notice,” Amplitude explained in a statement.
