Biomutant will be released on May 25, 2021, after years of silent development. Biomutant is a game developed by Experiment 101 and published by THQ Nordic with an innovative premise and outstanding visuals. It’s an action RPG. Sword-wielding cats, guns, and kung-fu masters.

Biomutant videos didn’t talk too often during development, but when they did, they appear to be quite potent. As the game’s release date approaches, experiment 101 has finally released a new collection of gameplay footage and trailers. Here’s all we know about Biomutant, including first looks, trailers, and how to make your own RPG.

What is the Biomutant release date?

Biomutant will be released on Steam and GOG on May 25, 2021. It’ll be available on PS4 and Xbox One as well.

The original release date for Biomutant was slated for 2019. Experiment 101 ultimately updated fans on the game’s status in early 2020, claiming it would “reveal the release date as soon as everyone at our studio feels confident about hitting that date and that the game is ready for it.” on Twitter.

Why has there been such a long time of silence? As a result, studio boss Stefan Ljungqvist noted, they were able to repair errors without crunching.

Biomutant’s combat plays like Devil May Cry

With a combination of melee weapons, guns, and flying freely in the combat environment, the first thing that players recognize most easily with a Capcom game is Devil May Cry. The attacks with many different combos, along with the fast rhythm make Biomutant very comfortable.

However, what makes Biomutant seem more potential is that now this game is designed in the form of a fat world. Devil May Cry has a lot of combos and weapons, along with a super fast-paced but the weakness of this title is that it is a linear game. This makes players not free to move to do what they like.

Biomutant has a system to upgrade attributes and stats. Moreover, weapons in the game also have attributes. That makes the gamesr have more depth and forces the player to calculate carefully.

Crafting weapons from pieces of junk

Unique weapons can be crafted by using items in the open world. So far, swords, staffs, rifles, and pistols have been seen. One sword’s base may be reinforced by a bent stop sign, while another’s grip is a monkey wrench. A gigantic toothbrush was also visible in the most recent gameplay video.

“Guns are volatile tiny Lego sets you assembly out of six component slots, including scopes, magazines, barrels, stocks, and so forth,” James state in early May after his hands-off preview.

“It all sounds nice, and I like the notion of creating weapons with unusual actions, appearances, and stats, but we still don’t know the scope of the situation.” It’s alluring because of the near-infinite diversity.

Biomutant’s story

Biomutant takes a different approach to the post-apocalyptic story. Biomutant’s world was destroyed by a large oil flood erupting from the ground, rather as a conventional natural disaster.

Experiment 101 has been tight-lipped regarding the plot, but it has made it clear that the decisions your cat makes have a significant impact on the plot. As an oil epidemic infects the Tree of Life, you must save it while bringing the world’s “tribes” together to restore vitality.

“Galactic Readiness” from Mass Effect 3 sounds a lot like the Tree of Life quest. Curing each of the Tree of Life’s “roots” increases your chances of rescuing the planet at the game’s conclusion.

At the beginning of Biomutant, players will tweak their cat protagonist’s genetic code to their liking—including strength, agility, vitality, charisma, and intellect. Shifting them around in the character creator drastically changes the physique of your cat.

They can be short or tall, buff or skinny, whatever you want. Stats have a direct effect on things like weapon damage, persuasion, and movement speed.

Biomutant’s Aura system

Deciding the ending of the game, the Aura system will evaluate what you do in the world of Biomutants and then decide whether you are a “bad guy” or a “good guy”.

Also, at the early stages of 2021, the producer Experiment 101 also expanded the game scale as well as the role of each character in Biomutants.
 
Good write-up. I've seen this game a lot on Steam recently but haven't had the time to look into it much yet, so your post is most appreciated!
I have heard a number of people felt left down by this title though, perhaps I'll have to pick it up myself to see what it's like.
