About BIOMUTANT®

BIOMUTANT® poster

BIOMUTANT is an open-world, post-apocalyptic RPG that frames itself as a Kung-Fu fable, built around a martial-arts-driven combat system that lets you weave together melee strikes, gunplay, and mutant powers. A plague is spreading across the land and the Tree-of-Life bleeds death from its roots while the Tribes remain divided, leaving you to explore a world in upheaval and decide its fate, whether as savior or as the architect of a darker future.

The combat is the centerpiece, prioritizing freedom of movement and agility as you blend shooting, close-quarters attacks, and abilities born of your mutations. Learning new Wung-Fu forms through progression and from masters you meet keeps expanding your options so fights stay fresh over time.

Character growth runs deep on PC. You can re-code your genetic structure to alter how you look and play, reshaping your attributes, while exposure to bio-contamination triggers mutations like the Turtleform and Mucus Bubble, and radioactivity in old-world bunkers unlocks psi-powers such as telekinesis and levitation. Crafting is equally open, letting you mix and match parts to build one-handed or two-handed slash-and-crush weapons, revolvers, rifles, and shotguns, complete with your own modifications.
