Humankind is a convergence of culture, history, and values that allows you to create a civilization that is as unique as you are,” Xbox Game Pass Community Lead Megan Spurr writes for Humankind’s overview. “You’ll be re-writing the entire narrative of human history (…no pressure) from its humble beginnings in the Neolithic Era, as you set out to leave the biggest mark on the world.

“To create your unique civilization, combine 60 historical cultures from the Ancient, to the Modern Era. Each of those cultures will bring a unique layer creating  near-endless outcomes. You’ll further customize your civilization with every deed you accomplish and moral choice you make. Everything you do builds your fame, and the player with the most fame will win the game.

“Show off your strategic skills in deep tactical battles, make scientific breakthroughs and build a sprawling empire. You will need to decide what civilization you will shape and mastermind a strategy to leave the deepest mark on the world.” Are you excited that Humankind is launching on Xbox Game Pass for PC?

Humankind launches on August 17, 2021 for PC and Stadia.
