About This Game

BIOMUTANT® is an open-world, post-apocalyptic Kung-Fu fable RPG, with a unique martial arts styled combat system allowing you to mix melee, shooting and mutant ability action.

A plague is ruining the land and the Tree-of-Life is bleeding death from its roots. The Tribes stand divided. Explore a world in turmoil and define its fate – will you be its saviour or lead it to an even darker destiny?

Key Features:
  • A NEW TAKE ON 3rd PERSON COMBAT
    The martial arts style combat system allows you maximum freedom of movement and agility while mixing shooting, melee and powers from your mutations. Learning new Wung-Fu combat forms through progression and learning from masters you’ll meet, will constantly add to your choices and make sure combat never gets old.

  • EVOLVE YOUR GAME-PLAY
    You’ll be able to re-code your genetic structure to change the way you look and play. This will of course affect your attributes and in addition to this, exposure to bio-contamination in the world will lead to mutations like the Turtleform and Mucus Bubble, while exposure to radioactivity found in bunkers from the old world will affect your mind and unlock psi-mutations like telekinesis, levitation and more.

  • NEXT LEVEL OF CRAFTING
    You are totally free when crafting weapons. Mix and match parts to create your own unique 1H or 2H slash and crush weapons. Revolvers, rifles and shotguns and add modifications like cork-screws and battery-powered chainsaw modules to bio-contaminated sludge vials adding to your combat arsenal. There are even characters you’ll meet that’ll craft cool stuff for you, like bionic wings, a jump-pack and even let you modify your Automaton - the scrap-toy sidekick!

  • GEAR UP FOR ADVENTURE
    You are totally free when equipping your character. Not only when it comes to choosing weapons you created, but what type of gear you wear. Equip a gas-mask and an oxygen tank for exploring the Dead Zones, thermos-resistant clothes for venturing into cryonic areas or protective gear for taking on bio-contaminated creatures, the choice is up to you.

  • SURVIVE IN A VIBRANT OPEN WORLD
    You are free to explore the world and what lies beneath its surface, by foot, mech, jet-ski, air-balloon or area unique mounts. Explore the dying wildland, the tunnels and bunker networks of the underworld, and find your way up the mountains or out in the archipelago. There are lots of discoveries to be made, mysteries to unravel, creatures to confront and weird characters to meet in this vibrant and colorful world.

  • AN UNUSUAL STORY WITH AN UNUSUAL END
    Your actions play a major part in the unfolding of a story where End is coming to the New World. A plague is ruining the land and the Tree-of-Life is bleeding death from its roots. The Tribes stand divided, in need of someone strong enough to unite them or bring them all down...
    You are guided through the world by a Storyteller that narrates every step of your journey, but it’s your actions and choices that’ll decide how your story of survival ends.

Well, its like the reviews said, you buy the game for its views, its potentially interesting crafting system and combat game play and nothing else, this plays like biting into a mirror finish apple only for it to be incredibly hollow on the inside, so hollow in fact that there is no inside, just the skin and a nexus supporting it, by the definition, its aight, 40$ is fucking outrageous for this though, ten dollar is much more acceptable.

Can THQ Nordic please pick this back up? This game had so much potential. Sure it under-delivered on nigh every one of it's selling points, and the narrator drove some people to mental illness with the inane iggle piggle in the night garden scripting, and the whole game was actually quite a waste of money, BUT; it was a cool game. It just needs a lot of work. 5* for the creative premise, 0* for execution. Would not recommend in it's current state for any money.

Controls like shouting orders at rodent through a radiophone. 10/10 for immersion.

Get it on a 50% off sale at least. It's an interesting world to explore, but it just feels like an unfinished beta. The moral choices are either comically evil or angelic paragon. Combat is VERY repetitive and takes too long. I want to like it more, but it just falls short. Translation to English was obviously not done very well. Still, I did enjoy just wandering around and finding interesting locations.

While I did initially liked it especially with the customisation ability it wasn't what I expected at all. Firstly, the narrator gets grating really fast and I would have much preferred for it to be not so talkative, and it would have been better to learn the game through better visual story telling. It felt like the game was funnelling me to much in the decisions I could make, which weren't many. Through the time I did play it, while granted not all that long was enough. The combat while flashy definitely not the best due to its repetitive nature. The aesthetics were pretty good and the choices kind of interesting but the voice acting including the gibberish sections weren't that pleasant either. Combined with the appearance of the actual characters wasn't appealing to me. Honestly from the promotional material and even the initial cut scene looked pretty good, the game-play in comparison was pretty lacklustre. I really wanted to like it due to its unique style, aesthetics and game pl...
