Humankind will be available this month through Xbox Game Pass for PC

Microsoft has announced that Amplitude Studio’s Humankind will be launching on Xbox Game Pass for PC on day-1, giving their subscribers access to the full game when it launched on August 17th. 

Humankind is a 4X strategy game that offers gamers a more versatile take on the Civilization formula. Players will form their unique civilizations from the Neolithic areas and into modern times. Each playthrough will be different, and players will be able to re-write the entirety of human history. 

Bringing the game to Xbox Game Pass for PC allows SEGA and Amplitude to deliver Humankind to a significantly larger playerbase at launch. Xbox Game Pass allows gamers to play many new games without committing to a full purchase, enabling subscribers to test out new titles and genres that they otherwise wouldn’t. 

Outside of Xbox Game Pass for PC, Humankind will also be available through Steam and the Epic Games Store. At this time we cannot comment on whether or not the Xbox Game Pass for PC version of Humankind will support modding. You can read Amplitude’s modding roadmap for Humankind here.
