All Once Human Shiny Deviant variations: Unique colors and traits explored

Shiny Deviants in Once Human are unique variations of old Deviants that have been introduced to the title in Season 2. These entities come with special abilities alongside their regular powers, making them highly valuable. Since you have limited slots for Deviants, having a Shiny instead of a regular one is much more optimal. However, due to their rarity, acquiring them is a major challenge. Obtaining one often requires over a hundred attempts.

This article lists all the known Shiny Deviant variations in Once Human, including their colors and traits. There might be additional variations yet to be discovered, and this list will be updated as new information becomes available.

Disclaimer: Some Shiny Deviants have mistranslated in-game descriptions, and players have reported that their special powers differ from those stated. Due to the extreme rarity of these variants, it's difficult to verify the accuracy of these descriptions.

These variations can be found in the same locations as their original versions but have a much lower drop rate. This makes farming them somewhat impractical, except for collection purposes, as a higher-level regular Deviant is still more useful than a low-level Shiny.

However, Starry Studio has previously mentioned plans to introduce a system that will allow players to fuse low-level Deviants to create a higher-level one. So, the Shiny Deviants are still worth holding onto if you are lucky enough to acquire them.
