Developed by Experiment 101 · Published by THQ Nordic









You play as a customizable mutant in a post-apocalyptic world threatened by a plague that is killing the Tree of Life. Its tribes are divided, and your choices shape whether they unite or fall further apart and influence the world's fate.
Explore the wildlands, ruins, tunnels and bunkers, meet characters, take on quests and confront creatures. Different regions have hazards that call for protective gear, and you can travel by mount, mech, jet-ski and other vehicles.
Combat combines melee weapons, guns and mutation abilities, with new Wung-Fu forms and skills added through progression. You can alter your character's attributes and appearance, unlock mutations, and build or modify weapons from scavenged parts.
Players who enjoy BIOMUTANT often praise its colorful world and creature designs, the freedom to explore, and the ability to craft and customize weapons and characters. Some also enjoy mixing combat styles and find the open-world adventure relaxing or charming. Critical reviews frequently describe the missions and encounters as repetitive, and object to the frequent narration and dialogue; opinions on combat and exploration vary.
