biomutant-jpg.214943

Biomutant, the game from THQ Nordic and Experiment 101 that went under the radar in 2019, only to resurface in 2020 with a new trailer and a pricey Collector's Edition now has a release date. It will be lauch for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One on May 25th, 2021, with more information to be released in the next weeks and months.

In case you forgot about the game (I don't blame you), you can have a refresher from the official description below:

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

  • 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.

This game looked wonky from the start. The art looks nice, but everything else seems super basic. I expect a big flop with 6/10 scores.

"It will be lauch"? :P
Anyway, I'm kinda hyped for this game. Too early to say for sure if I'll like it or not, but it looks good.
I was drawn to it when it was first announced now I'm not sure what to think about it following the delays and period of silence, which isn't totally a good sign.

I'm looking forward to the release. I know a lot of people talk down on this game for whatever reason but it looks interesting to me. I guess we'll see how it turns out soon.

Loved this game. Doubt it holds up well today, but that's mostly on N64's graphics.

As for Biomutant, they've shown very little actual gameplay. I am hoping it turns out good though, at the very least it seems far more unique than most open-world games.
