About

Build a civilization that spans the ages in this historical turn-based strategy game. Combine evolving cultures, raise cities, command armies and expand your empire as a changing climate reshapes the world and your path through history.

What is happening now

Humankind II is a 4X strategy sequel arriving on PC at the end of 2027. Following a competitive landscape where Civilization VII's launch missteps left an opening, Amplitude Studios appears positioned to capitalize with a thoughtful approach to its own design philosophy. The studio has reworked one of the original game's most contentious systems - its approach to culture selection and switching - suggesting a more integrated solution this time around. Early footage revealed by developers showcases the game's era-spanning progression and culture-shaping mechanics across extended gameplay segments, offering a substantial look beyond initial teaser materials. The coverage indicates Humankind II is attempting to address player feedback from its predecessor while establishing itself as a credible alternative within the 4X landscape.
