Once Human: How To Unlock And Use Emotes

In Once Human, surviving the apocalyptic world isn't just about scavenging for resources and battling mutated creatures. It's also about forging connections with fellow survivors you meet along the way. Emotes, known as Expressions in-game, offer a unique way to communicate beyond words.

Once Human: How To Change Worlds

Each server is divided into separate worlds. Here's how to switch between them.

A celebratory bow after a tough battle, a wave hello to a fellow explorer, or a mournful gesture for a fallen comrade – these emotes add personality to your character and enhance your interactions with others. This guide will equip you with the knowledge to unlock a wider variety of emotes, allowing you to express yourself more fully and create a truly unique character in Once Human.
