Biomutant - 15 Things You Need To Know Before You Buy

[Music] after a long period of development thq nordic's biomutant is slated to release on may 25th for xbox one ps4 and pc developed by experiment 101 the action rpg epic is chock full of gameplay mechanics and systems here are 15 things you need to know before venturing through the new world before we go ahead please consider subscribing to our channel we upload new videos every single day and your support really helps us out without out of the way let's start character customization anthropomorphic creatures rule in biomutant and you'll be playing as one throughout the story as such you can customize numerous aspects of your character such as fur fangs height and so on choosing a lighter creature may confirm more movement speed but a heavier creature will be able to soak up more damage players can also opt for one of six dna strands which can influence one's attributes it's also possible to reseed the genetics of dna strands for different results classes a class system is also in place allowing one to specialize their character further you can opt for a commando who's all about using guns or a sci freak who focuses on magic while the different types of classes and how to obtain them have yet to be revealed we do know of at least one that can be unlocked through pre-ordering more details on that later story and setting though you're playing as a custom character at the start biomutant does have an overarching story the tree has been polluted as a result the player must venture out and save the tree while also dealing with the six different tribes originally part of a unified enclave these tribes have separated and possess their own goals depending on your decisions the story can branch off in unique ways and though the plot is fully narrated this decreases as you progress you can also manually reduce the narration in the options dynamic weather and dead zones biomutants world is roughly four by four kilometers and while not the largest it promises numerous secrets and mysteries to uncover the game has a dynamic weather system and day and night cycle which reportedly influences enemy behavior there are also dead zones which require a gas mask and an oxygen tank to explore and cryo areas that require warm clothes to safely explore triboar the tribe war is one of the other major plot features some tribes are looking to save the tree while others are looking to destroy it you can either ally with the tribe and perform tasks for it furthering its goals in the process or choose to eliminate all of them to help take down a rival tribe you'll need to capture their outposts which provides unique rewards like new weapons skills and so on and then their fortress whether you stick with a chosen tribe or abandon them halfway through is completely up to you thankfully it seems like there won't be any fetch quests experiment 101 stefan longvist told game reactor that the emphasis is on secret discoveries or exploration where you actually find something interesting in the world and that will give you a small personal questline that will give you some form of reward companions and karma as you meet npcs and take on quests different quest lines start opening up you also won't have to go it alone in your journey thanks to the addition of companions these companions will fight with you and depending on your actions change their attitudes a karma system is also in place which keeps track of your decisions and provides either a light or dark aura for your character depending on which tribe you've allied with world eaters in order to save the tree you'll need to follow its four routes to the world eaters these are massive boss fights that require more specialized equipment to fight interestingly longvist indicated that you can either kill these world eaters or allow them to live how your choices and aura further influence this remains to be seen vehicles of course you won't be able to fight the world leaders without special vehicles these range from water skis called goo glides and submarines to mechs referred to as mectons balloons and mounts vehicles can be obtained by helping out different characters but they have other functions outside of the world leader fights you can use a mekton to traverse the dead zone which lacks oxygen and survive for longer periods of time or explore underwater in the submarine vehicles can also be upgraded if you so desire combat the combat has been described as a mix of melee attacks firearms and mutations different types of weapons range from shotguns and assault rifles to swords and power fists players are also capable of dodging attacks and executing different combos you can also seamlessly switch between different weapons in combat as you progress unique moves may be learned from different characters while leveling up allows for increasing attributes crafting crafting is also a major part of the game allowing players to create different types of weapons based on resources different weapons can have radically different magazine sizes critical chance accuracy damage types and so on depending on the parts gathered both single-handed and two-handed weapons are available and it's possible to affix different elemental damage like shock freeze and so on mutations mutations are the source of various effects you gain them via old world bunkers which grant abilities like telekinesis or levitation alternatively you can encounter a bio-contamination pool and alter your limbs to obtain pinching crab claws that can slam foes robotic parts like wings claws etc are also available and provide benefits like flight you can also freely switch out parts depending on the situation don't count on mutating yourself into an entirely different species though mercenary class pre-ordering the game will net you the mercenary class as a free bonus along with being playable from the start it comes with the katana and wakazashi along with the dual wield ability there's also a unique combination of perks available though more details haven't been provided it should be noted that the class can be purchased separately post-launch pc requirements in terms of pc hardware requirements biomutant isn't too demanding minimum requirements include an intel core i5 4690k or amd fx 8350 at 3.5 gigahertz 8 gigabytes of ram and either a geforce gtx 960 or radeon r9 380

about possible post-launch content he noted that the developer's current focus is on finishing the main game and realize our vision to the quality we want first and foremost then we hopefully deserve
