OPEN DEV: FIRST RESULTS
Recently, Sega and Amplitude debuted OpenDev, a new program allowing players to access the game in an early state and share their thoughts. The developers asked the community to play 3 targeted Humankind gameplay scenarios and give their feedback on specific subjects: exploration, battles, and city management. The results were awesome – over 80% of those who participated took the time to give detailed feedback!
The devs are going to be posting details on their community channels of how they’re adapting the game in the coming week. They have also created an infographic (seen below) with some OpenDev fun facts and a special thank you video with highlights from creators.
For those players who might have missed out on OpenDev, fear not, there will be other opportunities very soon!
FEATURE REVEAL: RELIGION
During the gamescom live shows, the developers also debuted their latest Feature Focus video (seen above), which dives into the religion system in Humankind.
In each game, you’ll be able to create and determine your society’s religion. Volatile at first, religions will evolve over the course of the game, typically consolidating into large blocks. Civics and event choices along the way will determine how religion fits into your society, including religious rights and the treatment of non-believers and religious minorities.
AND THE WINNER IS…
Finally, the devs were honored to win the gamescom award for Best Strategy Game, as well as being one of three games nominated for best PC game!
They’ve been making games alongside the community for nearly 10 years now, and Humankind is the game of their dreams. The devs didn’t think it was possible, but they’re more motivated than ever!
