“The Wheel of Visions” spins onto Once Human’s Season 3
On January 21st, a fresh patch was dropped on Once Human, launching the third season, titled "Wheel of Visions." The update added new areas, bizarre enemies, and a key mechanic: the ability to forge symbiotic bonds with hostile deviants, adopting their abilities to survive in the most dangerous regions of the game's world.
According to the developers at NetEase Games, players can now weaponize the heads of defeated creatures as symbiotes. These bonds unlock faction skills and passive effects that make exploring contaminated zones and hunting for valuable loot easier. In particular, some forms of symbiosis provide immunity to toxic atmospheres and enhance resistance to environmental anomalies.
One of the new frontiers is primeval lands, home to giant animals virtually invulnerable to firearms and technological gadgets. In these regions, players will have to rely on close combat and tactical positioning. Buildings with mirrored surfaces, which distort spatial orientation, create an additional challenge. Deviants actively leverage reflections to confuse opponents and strike from range.
The update also heightened the element of paranoia: some enemies disguise themselves as ordinary objects in open spaces, blurring the line between where the environment ends and the threat begins.
Among the newcomers, several particularly dangerous types stand out:

Among the newcomers, several particularly dangerous types stand out:
- The Absorber: dwells deep in caves and attacks players who linger near valuable resources.
- Sonivore: responds exclusively to sound – it cannot be destroyed by weapons or technology, so prey must be distracted by noise.
- The Beetle collects items left by other players, forming noticeable nests.
