Once Human

Once Human is a survival game set in a wilderness altered by Stardust. You face monsters and scarce food, build a territory, fight to protect survivors and investigate where Stardust came from and what it wants.

Survive the wilderness

Stardust affects the soil and water as well as living things. Eating polluted food or drinking dirty water reduces your Sanity; as it falls, your maximum HP falls with it. You must weigh whether to consume what you find while facing the harsh conditions of the wilderness.

Fight the enemies

You battle enemies that were once human and challenge bosses from another dimension. Defeating them can earn powerful items and ease Stardust pollution. Your fight also affects the survivors you encounter.

Customize your weapons

You can collect and craft about 100 gun blueprints across seven categories. Loot provides new items, and you can modify firearms with accessories and gun perks, then upgrade them to suit your needs.

Build your territory

Use a Territory Core to build a home, from a compact room stocked with essentials to a townhouse with a patio, kitchen and garage. You can relocate your territory at any time.

Seek the truth

As you investigate Stardust, you encounter factions that may be violent and hostile or friendly and helpful. Explore human settlements to learn their stories, or defeat bosses without leaving a name for survivors to praise. The choices are yours.
