Once Human 2026 • Reset & inheritance guide

Your scenario ends. What actually happens next?

Your character is not deleted and your account is not wiped. The outcome depends on whether you stay, enter a new scenario or return to Eternaland—and whether an item is permanent progression or a physical copy.

The 20-second answer

Blueprints, Mods, cosmetics and major account unlocks persist. Crafted gear and ordinary supplies move to Eternaland and may cost Resource Inheritance Points to bring into a new scenario. Character level and scenario-specific progression restart only when you begin a fresh scenario.

The rules are different for staying and starting over elsewhere.

Three outcome buckets

Keep, store or rebuild

The key distinction is permanent progression versus a physical item in your current backpack.

Directly retained

Account progression

Available without spending transfer points.

  • Weapon and armor blueprints + stars
  • Blueprint fragments and accessories
  • Mods, cosmetics and formulas
  • House blueprints and key records
  • Most important currencies
Stored in Eternaland

Physical inventory

Kept in the Spacetime Backpack; eligible imports cost points.

  • Crafted weapons and armor
  • Materials, medicine and ammunition
  • Captured Deviations
  • Calibration Blueprints
  • Other eligible backpack supplies
Fresh progression

Scenario-bound systems

Rebuilt when entering a new scenario.

  • Character level

Scenario lifecycle

From settlement to your next world

01 • Active scenario

Play normally

Progress through phases and collect permanent and physical rewards.

02 • Rest period

Choose your route

Stay, sign up for another scenario or return to Eternaland.

03 • Settlement

Items are sorted

Permanent data carries; physical inventory enters Eternaland.

04 • Next destination

Stay or restart

Permanent server preserves the run; a new scenario refreshes progression.

Spend points deliberately

What should you transfer first?

There is no universal shopping list. Prioritize what accelerates your actual build instead of importing comfortable clutter.

Build-defining, difficult-to-replace items

A strong Calibration Blueprint or rare Deviation can matter more than stacks of common resources.

Early progression accelerators

Consider items that remove a real early bottleneck in your chosen scenario.

Convenience only after core value

Medicine, materials and ammunition are useful, but many can be reacquired cheaply.

Do not copy an old cost table blindly. Transfer eligibility and costs are shown in game and can differ by item or scenario rules.

Five-minute reset checklist

Reset FAQ

What players mean when they ask about wipes

Does Once Human wipe your character?

No. Your character identity and important account progression remain. Level and scenario-linked progression refresh when you enter a new scenario so its progression curve stays meaningful.

Do weapon and armor blueprints carry over?

Yes. Blueprints, their star progression, blueprint fragments and weapon accessories are long-term progression. A crafted weapon is different: that physical copy goes to Eternaland.

Do Mods and Deviations carry over?

Mods are directly retained under the inheritance rules. Captured Deviations are physical inventory: they move to Eternaland and eligible ones can be imported into a new scenario using points.

What happens to my house?

Your saved house blueprint and furniture formulas persist, but you need the appropriate materials to rebuild the physical structure in a new scenario. Save the design before moving.

What happens to Energy Links?

Energy Links are tied to scenario pacing and are converted to Astral Sand under settlement rules rather than entering the next scenario as the same balance.

What happens if I stay on the same server?

Under current console-era rules, staying does not remove your progress or supplies. After the scenario reaches its 14-day rest period, it is automatically merged into the corresponding permanent scenario server.

Do I need to join a new scenario immediately?

No. You can continue on the current path or return to Eternaland and wait until you are ready to choose another scenario.

Do Resource Inheritance Points carry over?

The transfer allowance refreshes when you join a new scenario. Each eligible item has its own cost, visible in the game, so plan against the current interface rather than an old web table.
