In Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey, players are
challenged to survive and evolve in the harsh yet beautiful land of
Africa spanning from 10 million to two million years ago. As
hominids, players explore Neogene Africa, expand their territory,
and evolve to advance their clan from one generation to the next in
order to survive in this innovative take on the open world survival
genre. The game and its mechanics rely on evolution, discovery, and
survival as players traverse a variety of terrain and environments,
encounter various predators, and learn new abilities to pass along
to the next generation of their clan.
“We want to give an experience no player has ever lived before”,
said Patrice Désilets, co-founder and creative director of Panache
Digital Games. “Our small team will always seek to push the
boundaries of what our medium is. The very early evolution of the
humankind is an ambitious, truly immersive, and exclusive setting
that will delight gamers of all types.”
“Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey stands out as a truly
unique game that challenges players in unexpected ways,” said
Michael Worosz, senior vice president and head of Private Division.

genre.”
