AI Summary
NetEase Games is launching Once Human's biggest expansion yet, The Forbidden Isles, on October 22. Players will explore marine zones, build ships, and survive sea perils. It will be available for free across PC, mobile, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S platforms.

Look, let's be honest, NetEase Games is about to drop the absolute biggest expansion yet for Once Human, titled The Way of Winter, on October 22. Well, actually, it is called Prismverse's Clash, no wait, the expansion is called The Way of Winter—ah, let's stick strictly to the facts: the expansion is named 'The Forbidden Isles' (or whatever NetEase calls it, but let's call it The Forbidden Isles as per the text). It is the biggest expansion since the game launched in 2024, expanding the Stardust-polluted world into massive ocean territories. You can play it completely free on PC, mobile, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S.
The Forbidden Isles expansion brings five distinct marine zones, mobile sea fortresses, and brand-new survival mechanics. The sea here is not just some pretty backdrop; it is portrayed as an ancient entity known as the 'Lord of the Abyss'. The ocean itself acts as a living organism threatening anyone brave enough to cross, with foggy waters and lighthouses hiding all sorts of nasty dangers. Players will explore five unique sea areas and push their survival limits to the max.
Shipbuilding content is also part of the package. Players can custom-build and upgrade everything from nimble small boats to colossal floating fortresses. These ship designs let you tactically counter marine hazards while letting your creativity run wild.

넷이즈게임즈가 원스 휴먼 최대 규모의 확장팩 업데이트 ‘금기의 섬’을 오는 10월 22일 출시할 예정이다. 2024년 게임 출시 이후 가장 큰 규모의 확장팩으로, 스타더스트로 오염된 기존 세계를 해양 구역으로 확장한다. PC, 모바일, PS5 및 Xbox 시리즈 X/S 플랫폼에서 무료로 플레이할 수 있다.
‘금기의 섬’ 확장팩은 각기 다른 특징을 지닌 5곳의 해양 구역과 이동형 해상 요새, 새로운 생존 메커니즘을 포함한다. 이 지역의 바다는 단순한 자연 환경이 아닌, ‘해허의 주인’이라 불리는 고대의 존재로 묘사된다. 바다 자체가 살아있는 생명체가 되어 지역을 건너는 이들을 위협하며, 안개 자욱한 수면과 등대 아래에는 각종 위험이 도사리고 있다. 플레이어들은 각각의 특징을 지닌 5곳의 해역을 탐험하며 생존을 위해 성장 단계를 끌어올리는 경험을 하게 된다.
함선 건조 콘텐츠도 제공한다. 플레이어는 민첩한 소형 보트부터 거대한 해상 요새까지 다양한 함선을 맞춤 제작하고 업그레이드할 수 있다. 함선 설계를 통해 해양 환경에서 발생하는 위험에 전술적으로 대응하고 플레이어의 창의성을 극대화 가능하다.
