Biomutant

Description

Biomutant is an action-adventure RPG with a strong, narrative-driven story, taking place in a unique, artful world inspired by masterpieces such as Devil May Cry, Ratchet and Clank, and even the movie: Kung-fu Panda. Created by developer Experiment 101, Art & Creative Director Stefan Ljungqvist along with his team aims to offer players unparalleled freedom in character creation, combat mechanics, and exploration elements in the post-apocalyptic epic adventure. Set in a time where the lifeforce of the planet is sustained by the Tree of Life, players design their own vision of the ultimate battle critter, in order to adopt their preferred Mutations, learn styles of Martial Arts, and save the divine tree to unite the realm once more.

Explore a world in turmoil and determine its fate – will you use it as a hero and savior, or lead it to an even darker fate? – explains THQ Nordic.

Biomutant is an action role-playing game set in an open world environment and played from a third-person perspective in which the player takes control of a mammalian warrior in a world filled with mutated animals. Players first customize their character including length, body shape and thickness, fur, fangs, and many other attributes that can be tweaked and all have direct impact on the statistics of the playable character during gameplay. A thicker character is heavier, which makes it slower but conversely allows it to deal and resist more damage. The combat system combines melee attacks with long-range shooting. The player collects parts throughout the game and combines these parts to create a weapon. Each part has its own effect on the statistics of the end product. The game features a variety of Affixes, including cryogenic and electrical, which are effective in battles. When a cryogenic part is put onto a weapon, enemies will freeze when hit. The player can combine the power of multiple weapons by switching between different weapons during combat. The protagonist is able to dodge to the left, right, and backward, as well as jump. Besides leveling up the playable character, the player can also use level up points to strengthen their attributes or to unlock new attack combinations. Another way to learn new moves is by interacting with specific characters in each area. Most moves are based on weapons, which can be crafted using the game’s weapon crafting system.^[3][4]
