New Humankind Video Shows How Civics, Ideologies, and Event Can Shape Your Society

Sega and Amplitude released a new video of their upcoming 4X simulation game Humankind.

The video is narrated by executive producer Jean-Maxime Moris and Narrative Director Jeff Spock, as they talk about Civics, Ideologies, and narrative event.

Those three factors will basically shape your society organically through each playthrough, and due to the fact that narrative events are closely tied to the situation, you may end up having completely different runs. 

You can check the video out below.

Humankind has been announced only for PC and will come in 2020.

If you’re unfamiliar with the game, here’s an official description. You can also read my own preview.

“HUMANKIND is Amplitude Studios’ magnum opus, a Historical Turn-Based Strategy game where YOU will re-write the entire narrative of humankind – a convergence of culture, history, and values that allows you to create a civilization that is as unique as you are.

Create your own civilization by combining 60 historical cultures from the Bronze to the Modern Age.

Begin as Ancient Egypt, then evolve into the Romans, the Khmers, or perhaps the Vikings.

Each culture brings its own special gameplay layer, leading to near-endless outcomes.”
