Biomutant new game plus5/31/2023 The combat may be one of the easiest and most fun parts of the game, there are generous checkpoints and it's easy to traverse the world with the generous fast travel points. At one point you briefly spend time under water, I was hoping for more of this. I also wanted to know more about the past. While the game does struggle with its identity there are also a few flaws, I started to lose interest in the story about 2/3 of the way through. The music and characters players meet can be catchy and entertaining. Players will see old technology such as dams and skyscrapers, it's a mutated world with a lot to offer and it looks very pretty doing so. Some of the zones are toxic and players will need special armor or to buff their resistance (this is easier). The world is a mesh of jungle, ice, snow, mountains and a water world. ![]() Most of the exploring is to find new areas, and pieces of tech to upgrade weapons and armor. There are plenty of side quests and places to explore in the giant world. ![]() These parts aren't too long and 1/2 way through you can pick to auto defeat the rest which speeds the game up. Once they pick the tribe they have to defeat the other tribe(s) at their bases and capture them. Players will spend their time defeating 4 bosses that control part of the Tree of Life while picking a tribe they want to fight for. I did modify my melee weapons to inflict poison damage and my rifle to have some radioactive damage. I mostly used a combination of all 3 but tried to fight from a distance. The psi attacks include fireballs, blazing trails of fire, turning the enemies into your allies, summoning a swarm of bug, telekinesis, teleportation and icing over the ground, plus several others.īiomutant has a lot of different options for combat, and this can fit most play styles. Players can spend their points they get from leveling on biomutant abilities which includes resistances to the 4 elements (Heat, biohazard, cold and radioactivity), and psi abilities which are the game’s equivalent to magic attacks. This combat also comes with lots of skills to unlock, many of these are weapon based combo attacks. There are weapons a plenty, one handed swords, two handed hammers, giant shotguns, rifles, and pistols. Players can craft weapons and armor or modify what they have. Overall players are trying to find out their past, this is told via narration and flashbacks and determine what future they want for the world and the Tree of Life. Lucky for those gamers in a hurry there are options to speed up the dialogue and be able to see and hear the translated text instead of waiting for the creatures to finish telling their life story. The story and narration can be long and drawn out and all the creatures have an animal language. Think this, RPG meets deep world ending story with a huge amount of side quests. So where to start, the game is trying to mesh a lot of different elements together. I went with the deadeye class which focuses on long ranged guns. I had heard the magic class could be tough to play. ![]() I debated between a melee based rodent, a gunslinger, or something in between. ![]() Players have a lot of options when it comes to customizing their rodent-like character, everything from the stats, appearance, and how gamers want to play. Apparently the world has mutated and everything has changed. Biomutant’s story can be odd sometimes but for the most part it revolves around players trying to figure out where they came from and how the Tree of Life, the centerpiece of the world, fits into everything.
