A distinguishing feature of Humankind is that within each of the eras, the player selects one of ten civilization types based on historical societies this selection offers both bonuses and penalties to how the player can build out the civilization.

Players lead their civilization across six major eras of human civilization, starting from the nomadic age, directing how the civilization should expand, developing cities, controlling military and other types of units as they interact with other civilizations on the virtual planet, randomly generated at the start of a new game. Humankind is a 4X game comparable to the Civilization series.
