So, the three affinity victories are remaining and the hybrids will have have access to these as well.
After thinking about it, I'm guessing the hybrids won't be able to choose a victory between their two affinities, they'll have access to only one, like the pure affinities.
Promised Land: Purity and Supremacy/Purity
Transcendence: Harmony and Purity/Harmony
Emancipation: Supremacy and Harmony/Supremacy
Supremacy/Purity
It's a little awkward to envision S/P invading the Earth with its military to "emancipate" earthlings from the planet (because they're certainly not going to forcibly emancipate them from their flesh).
It makes a lot more sense for S/P to welcome the earthlings to their new planet where the machines serve them all and allow humans to live more luxuriously, freeing up time and energy to focus on and enhance both their knowledge and their culture through many different artforms.
Harmony/Supremacy
It's a bit strange for a rampant, power-by-any-means hybrid like H/S to be one with the planet and live harmoniously within its ecosystem. I believe they would be far more likely to exploit it, like Earth, and then look for another planet to exploit and consume for their own needs.
It makes a lot more sense for them to invade Earth and "emancipate" the earthlings by assimilating them into their ranks and stripping whatever is left of Earth (its resources, living and non-living).
Purity/Harmony
It doesn't make a lot of sense for P/H to welcome inferior earthlings to their new planet and contaminating the gene pool of their population.
However, it makes some sense for P/H to leave Earth and its inhabitants behind and focus on themselves and the planet they're on instead. Merging with the consciousness of the planet can bring them closer to a god-like, superhuman state and allow them to live in perfect harmony with everything while undoubtedly unlocking more secrets to life, such as immortality.
