Sometimes you have to brave harsh environments, and without the proper protective gear, resistances can come in handy. Both mutations and psi powers can give you powerful new abilities, or you can choose to spend your bio points on upgrading resistances, instead. The combat in Biomutant is fun, and fast, but it can feel a little overwhelming at first, especially with the options for psi powers and mutations added in. Combat is a mixture of melee and ranged attacks, and is combo-based, meaning you can chain together attacks to create combos, and unlock different combos as you progress through the levels. Instead, Biomutant hearkens back to an earlier era of combat, as dealing damage is about quick reflexes with a little style thrown in. It does away with the slow stamina-based Dark Souls-style combat a lot of modern games employ. Screenshot: BiomutantĬombat is an essential part of Biomutant, and one of the things that first made me notice it when it was announced almost a half-decade ago. You can choose to unite these tribes and save the world, or play them against each other and watch chaos unfold as the world ends. Four World Eaters have emerged to end the world as the five tribes fight amongst themselves. As did the world of humanity before it, the New World of Biomutant is coming to an end: the Tree-of-Life is bleeding, and dying. The time of man is long gone, as their structures lay wasting under generations of new growth, and they are replaced by mutated animals that sometimes adapt the products of the old world into something new in a sort of post-apocalyptic cargo cult. And that destiny is up to you as you explore the post-apocalyptic open world, destroyed by men in their hubris and greed. Orphaned as a youngling, and marked by the carnivorous Lupa Lupin, you return to the place of your youth to meet your destiny. You take the role of a Ronin warrior on a quest for revenge that turns into a chance to save the world. It’s a strange game that mixes its post-apocalyptic setting, anthropomorphic mutated animals, and a touch of eastern themes to create something simultaneously unique, but familiar.īiomutant is a single player third person open world action game. A lot of modern influences are gone, or in the background. Biomutant feels like a game from yesteryear plopped into the current generation-like something that was conceived around the Dreamcast and PlayStation 2 generation, made with modern visuals and controls.
You can almost tell what games came from what generation/era based purely on aesthetics and sensibility. Video games, like any form of media, have evolved over the years.
