Once Human Holiday Season Update Brings New Dungeons, Christmas Event, and Community Gala

Holiday seasons trailer:
Once Human’s Crimson Night Showdown Features Three Challenging Dungeons
Those seeking thrills this holiday season can challenge new dungeons during Once Human’s Crimson Night Showdown event, which is running from December 10 to January 21.
Crimson Night Showdown features three dungeons: Red Vulture Combat Zone, Esoteric Altar, and Hunting Grounds. These dungeons consist of 10 floors filled with enemies, with the primary goal being to slay them all. The monsters grow in power with each floor, making them the ultimate trial for Once Human players.
The dungeon rules are simple: they can be challenge solo or by teams (which are ranked independently), Lunacy will affect both players and enemies, and you can use all backpack and tech items save for Adrenaline Shots, which are limited to three per attempt.
The Red Vulture Zone became available on December 10, with another dungeon unlocked the following week, and the third the week after. Once the final dungeon is available, leaderboards will be opened, giving players the chance to rank themselves through completion time. Once the event has concluded, those who conquered the dungeons will receive special rewards based on their runs.
The Crimson Night Showdown is full of special loot and rewards for players to unlock, but they’ll have to earn it, as these dungeons won’t pull any punches.
Once Human’s New Island Brings The Christmas Cheer
Starting from December 10, Once Human is celebrating the holiday season with a special Christmas-themed island. This island features a massive tree that changes in response to player contributions. When the island first appears, the tree will accept gifts from players. These donations will transform it into a glorious Christmas tree, granting players tickets to a festive Whack-A-Mole game with its own exclusive rewards.
Once the Christmas tree is complete, it will allow players to use backpack items to craft items at the gift boxes beneath its branches. These items can be traded with others, given as gifts, or exchanged for more Whack-A-Mole tickets.
The Starlight Gala Will End 2025 In Style
Once Human is ending 2025 with a bang, as the Starlight Gala is coming on December 30. The Starlight Gala is an in-game party, decorated with Christmas trees, lights, and festive decorations. There will be many in-game gifts players can receive on a first-come, first-served basis.
The Starlight Gala also features a stunning stage where players are welcome to perform, allowing them to dance, sing, and play instruments for the enjoyment of all, creating precious memories that will last a lifetime. There’s also a photo spot near the stage that is the perfect spot for the community to immortalize the special moments they spend together.
There are many special Christmas-themed giveaways and events happening at Once Human throughout the holiday season. Everyone who logs in will have the chance to celebrate in style and experience Christmas cheer in-game with friends and other players who might be miles apart but are together in spirit.
