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
DO NOT BUY AT FULL PRICE THIS GAME IS EXTREMELY OVERPRICED With that out of the way... It's a real shame THQ abandoned this game during development, and the devs abandoned it on release day, not wasting a single second & not even closing the door on the way out. The devs are NOT interested in this title, and have totally abandoned it - there are bugs & other issues that will never be fixed, because Experiment 101 is staffed by selfish jerks who are happy for you to pay them but not happy to make sure what they're selling you is finished. So, we're looking at this game as the abandoned child it is. It's not going to be awesome, complete or lead to more - the devs have decided they do not care. I was shocked at how nice the game looks & how deep the mechanics are. I was expecting the absolute bare-minimum in every area, but there is more meat to the game than it first appears. That's not to say this is like Star Citizen or ArmA - it's just nicely featured as far as combat & config go. The world is pretty, prettier than you'd expect largely due to the art style. There is a charm that this game has all to itself. It's smaller than you'd expect, though. Where the game really falls down is in the polish & mid-late game content areas. Obviously this is due to the devs all moonwalking straight outta there as soon as possible at any opportunity. It's a shame, this could have been proper 8-9/10 material with more work & some love, which it clearly never got at any stage during development. This is a 6.5/10 action "RPG". It's available elsewhere for $10-15, and that's what it's worth. Do not pay more than that. P.S. the DLC is worthless and can be unlocked in game, don't bother
The game is very enjoyable on it's first few hours. After that, everything gets very repetitive and tedious. Combat is very shallow. Exploration and world building is mediocre. The world looks gorgeous, but is very dull in terms of things that you can do. Most of the ruins that you will explore are just copy pasted version of other ruins with very minimal changes. Finally, the narrator is very annoying. The devs just abandoned this game after fixing some issues.
