'Humanity' Reaches One Million Players - Trailer

by Rainier on Aug. 16, 2023 @ 9:07 a.m. PDT

Humanity is an action-puzzle hybrid where you become a Shiba Inu (dog) tasked with leading a massive, marching crowd to goals in each stage.

A unique blend of puzzle-solving and action-platforming, Humanity puts the fate of all mankind in your hands. Er, paws. Did we mention you’re a dog? 

You play a Shiba Inu charged with commanding massive, marching crowds to jump, turn, push, float, shoot, and climb their way to salvation.

Guide the masses through levels (10 in the demo, 90-plus stages in the full game Story Mode) filled with obstacles, enemies, puzzles, and unlockable skills, or browse a wide array of user-made challenges (or build your own!) crafted via the super-easy-to-use in-game Stage Creator. 

Whether on your standard display or in the optional VR Mode, watch as breathtaking swarms of people follow your commands to the exit, all in Humanity’s stark iconic style, courtesy of director and celebrated visual designer Yugo Nakamura and famed game creator Tetsuya Mizuguchi (Rez, Tetris Effect: Connected).

Publisher/developer Enhance announced that Humanity has achieved a significant milestone, surpassing one million downloads worldwide across PS5, PS4 and Steam.

Steam players can now play 10 specially selected STORY MODE stages and 3 USER STAGES in the free demo version of Humanity. Playable on PC, Steam Deck and compatible PC VR headsets, this gives users just a taste of the action-puzzle gameplay they’ll find in the full version.

We recently launched the 1.07 Content Update, which adds the Machines, a late-game action-puzzle element from the last chapter of Humanity’s STORY MODE, to its robust Stage Creator. Turrets, Drones, Lasers and more can now be integrated into a user’s stage designs and uploaded/shared for the community to play.

Our dedicated community has created over 5,500 stages, playable in the USER STAGES mode. Even those who are not ready to make their own levels can benefit from this always-growing library of levels which use Humanity’s mechanics in unique and interesting ways. From standard puzzles, ornate artwork, and sprawling battle maps to near-impossible kaizo challenges, there’s always something new to play.

Our community's support and enthusiasm for our Shiba Inu game has been instrumental in our achievement. The content in USER STAGES showcases the incredible creativity that can be achieved with Humanity's Stage Creator tools. If you've finished Story Mode, be sure to check out USER STAGES to play even more levels.

We're grateful to the players who have let us know they've platinumed the game and are also excited to see so many players enjoying creating and playing USER STAGES. We can’t wait to see all the stages the community come up with next! Join us for our regularly scheduled streams where we highlight new stages and play them live on Twitch.
