Once Human’s Final Console Beta Is Live On Xbox Series X|S — Here’s How To Make Every Day Of It Count
Starry Studio and NetEase Games opened the last Once Human Console Open Beta on June 17, with a hard cutoff and a capped number of player slots. Pick a scenario below, track what survives the wipe, and lock in the level 20 rewards before the window closes.
Five scenarios are live for this test. Tap one to see what it offers and whether it links into the current Visional Wheel content.
Scenario
Dream
of Winter
Novice Scenario
The entry point built for players new to the Stardust-infected open world. It covers base survival systems, capturing Deviants, and the early Mutagen loop without throwing RaidZone-level pressure at you on day one.
Manibus
One of the established core scenarios, focused on territory building and defending against sieges while pushing Deviant capture and base automation further than the Novice track.
Endless Dream
A scenario built around sustained, ongoing survival pressure rather than a fixed story arc, giving longer-session players a reason to keep building and mutating past the early game.
The Way of Winter
A seasonal scenario layering environmental hazard on top of the standard Stardust threat, testing how your base and gear hold up once conditions turn against you.
RaidZone
The combat-first, high-intensity mode. It does not include Visional Wheel S3: Aberrant Progeny, and it runs on a different reward rule entirely — see the eligibility note below before you commit your beta hours here.
This beta is a wipe test. Most character progress resets before the console launch — but three things don’t. Here’s the full breakdown.
All Starchrom earned during the beta transfers permanently into the full console release.
Every cosmetic and outfit you unlock in the beta, including the Level 20 crate picks, stays with your account at launch.
You can bring up to six captured Deviants into the full release. Anything beyond that count is lost at wipe.
Character progression itself, including levels and most account state outside the items above, resets before launch.
Reaching Level 20 with any character unlocks one Cosmetic Selection Crate and one Weapon Skin Selection Crate. Tap a pick from each list to preview your loadout — selections are made in-game.
