The game is reminiscent of other strategy titles like Civilization, where the player controls factions throughout history, interacting with notable figures, and conquering lands, if they so desire. Last year it was announced that Humankind was being delayed into spring of 2021 due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, as many other games had to do, but was later pushed back even further to this summer.

Humankindhas had a long and troubled development, but now fans can rejoice that it is coming to Game Pass day one when it launches later this year.
