Humanity announced for Xbox and Game Pass

In the post-show section of the IGN x ID@Xbox showcase they had a surprise when Humanity was announced for Xbox and Game Pass.

Humanity was originally released on the PlayStation 4, 5, and PC in May of 2023. It is now coming to Xbox One, Series X|S, and the Microsoft Store on PC on May 30th, 2024. The game launches directly into Game Pass as well on Cloud, Console, & PC.

Humanity describes itself as

“A unique blend of puzzle-solving and action-platforming. Play a lone Shiba Inu charged with commanding massive, marching crowds to the goal in Story Mode, or browse a wide array of user-made levels crafted via the in-game Stage Creator!”

Humanity holds an 85 on the site Opencritic as of publishing. Gabriel Moss of IGN gave the game a 9, stating “Humanity is a beautiful, modern reimagining of Lemmings that blends many different genres into its clever puzzles, and its powerful level editor has dizzying potential.”

Wesley LeBlanc of Game Informer found that “Humanity strikes a delicate balance between challenging me at every turn and allowing me to feel like the god its narrative props me up to be. It’s an imaginative experience that provides a rush I imagine computer programmers feel when dozens of commands and lines of code finally work together to create a desired outcome. Its puzzles come wrapped in a beautiful package, from its minimalist visuals to its excellent clicky electronic beats.” Giving it an 8.5.
