The Visional Wheel in Once Human rotates every three months, introducing unique themes that impact combat, survival, and gameplay mods. Learn what the Visional Wheel is and explore the various Visional Wheel Tags in this guide.

What is the Visional Wheel?

Gameplay Mechanic that Transforms Scenarios

The Visional Wheel is an enigmatic and powerful eldritch deviation, an entity of immense power that exists at the dimensional level. When activated, it triggers a series of abnormal phenomena across Once Human scenarios, transforming them into Visional Scenarios.

The Visional Wheel brings with it a set of mysterious and dangerous rules, affecting three key aspects of the game: the survival environment, combat environment, and Scenario gameplay. These changes significantly alter how players interact with the world, forcing them to adapt to new challenges and mechanics.

The Visional Wheel affects three primary areas of the game:

• Survival Environment: The world around you changes, bringing new obstacles, resource availability, and environmental conditions.
• Combat Environment: Combat mechanics shift, with changes to enemy behavior, damage modifiers, or even new combat rules.
• Scenario Gameplay: The overall rules of the scenario are adjusted, adding new objectives, win conditions, or gameplay dynamics that require players to rethink their strategy.

Each cycle of the Visional Wheel lasts 2 to 3 months, after which the wheel turns again, generating a fresh set of visions and new, unpredictable Visional scenarios.

The Visional Wheel will only apply to certain new servers opened after January 16. Players can still choose to play on servers without the Visional Wheel.

Visional Wheel Tags

Lunar Oracle

The Lunar Oracle is the first revealed Visional Wheel tag, bringing a series of game-changing mechanics to Once Human. When activated, this tag transforms the scenario into a Visional Scenario, introducing Lunacy—a powerful condition that alters combat, survival, and gameplay dynamics.

Whenever the red moon rises, Metas must adapt to fluctuating Sanity levels, collect Lunar Whispers, and face new challenges that come with the rise of the red moon. It’s an event where high-risk, high-reward strategies are key to survival.

The Lunar Oracle event primarily increases difficulty between 9:00 PM and 3:00 AM (in-game time), which equals 15 minutes in real-world time.
