Super People's 2021 reveal: classes and a battle-royale beta

Wonder People's original Super People announcement combined last-player-standing competition with distinct super-soldier abilities. A beta announcement was not a guarantee of permanent service.

The original game concept

Wonder People introduced Super People in July 2021 as a PC battle-royale project from Oscar Mike Studio. The concept combined first-person shooting with super-soldier abilities, adding character-specific choices to a last-player-standing match structure. These were the developer's design claims, not the result of an independent NewsCubby playtest.

Testing and service availability

The developer's November 2, 2021 beta announcement described twelve classes and the Orb Island setting, with solo and squad participation. Registration for a closed test meant requesting access to a particular development phase, rather than buying a promise that the servers would remain available indefinitely.

The historical announcement cannot establish today's download, account or service status. Check the current official store and operator notices before attempting to install an old live-service game. Overwatch 2's launch guide provides a comparison between beta access, early access and an evolving free-to-play release.
