DISCOVER THE EXCITING NEW FEATURES AND IMPROVEMENTS IN HUMANKIND’S LATEST FREE UPDATE

Achilles update is now live, offering players changes to war support

PARIS, February 13, 2025 – Amplitude Studios is excited to announce the release of a brand-new free update for HUMANKIND™, the turn-based historical strategy game that has captivated 3 million people worldwide! Achilles update will prevent players from being caught off guard by a sudden end to the war and make clearer how demands, occupied territory, and surrender terms are connected.

Below is a summary of the key highlights you can look forward to exploring:

• Refuse surrender: Players can now reject surrender proposals, even with 0 War Support.
• No Forced White Peace: Reaching 0 War Support no longer triggers an automatic White Peace.
• War score adjustments: Now based only on demands and occupied territory.
• Centralized power: A new empire bonus to reduce the impact of lost units on War Support.
• Surprise wars: Players can now declare surprise wars at any time.
• New historical figures: Added personas like Alexander the Great, Napoleon, and Sun Tzu.

Please note, the Achilles update is only available on Steam.

The Patch notes can be found here.
