Biomutant update9/18/2023 ![]() ![]() The PS5 update brings framerate smoothness to make combat feel and play better – it’s really this new version’s only saving grace. Instead, the game is still let down by all the same questionable game design, pointless side-quests and ghastly amount of narration that makes you want to blow your face off. ![]() The developers have now had a year to to come out swinging with fancy-pants graphics and dozens of wholesale changes the game needed. The millions and millions of pointless items are still pointless and generally Biomutant still feels like a wasted opportunity.īiomutant had bags of potential but squandered this at release. That sounds Avengers level exciting, but alas it’s near not mentioned throughout the game. I mean you’re out to stop four world-eaters. The hideous amount of narration is still present and as infuriating as ever. The dull side quests (for which there are a bazillion) are still dull. Yes, the game now has a stable framerate, but that should be standard (don’t get me started on this subject). The trouble is the very few and far between upgrades don’t really fix the major problems the game has in the first place. Better yet the PS5 version is free for those of you that purchased the original PS4 game. This means that you can pick up where you left off as soon as you update to the swish PS5 version. It was actually enjoyable.īiomutant also boasts cross-save support with the PS4 version. Given the lack of oomph the sound FX have when fighting, the added rattle of gunfire and rumble of clashing swords brings the combat to life a little more than the silence that sometimes greeted you in the launch version. ![]() The only marked difference was with how smooth and silky the game now performs at 60fps – your strange mutant rodent now moves like a mouse gliding through melted butter.Īdditional improvements to the PS5 version are adaptive triggers and haptic feedback, which added a layer of enhanced interaction with your furball protagonist. Despite the graphic options offering increased resolution and frame rates, Biomutant’s graphics left me underwhelmed. I thought it may have been my settings so I tried all of them with no noticeable change. ![]() Everything in the game looks muddy, the blacks are a dark brown, the bright blue sky is a near twilight shade. I wasn’t impressed with the visual overhaul. Finally, there is a third mode which tries going for 4k while doing its best to keep the frame rate smoother. This basically translates as getting a fidelity mode which has native 4K but locked at 30fps, or a performance mode that kicks things up to 60fps with a dynamic resolution. It's worth noting that, unlike the Xbox Series X version, the PS5 edition of the game can not be run at the native 4K resolution.So the first thing you will notice is the visual presets, which seem to have been established since 4K was a thing for consoles. The game is playable on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S through the backward compatibility system.

On the other hand, the physical version of the game will require the update 2.01 for a smooth and polished experience.īiomutant is a post-apocalyptic role-playing experience that allows players to create their own character with a specific combat class and enter a wonderful world of mutated creatures. Keep in mind that if you have purchased the game digitally, you won't need to download the update above as the changes have already applied to that version of the game. Since the game has launched today, and no one - except for reviewers - has played it previously, it doesn't seem too necessary to prepare a detailed patch notes list for a day one update. Unfortunately, the patch notes don't contain any specific list of bug fixes or improvements, and it's pretty usual for the day one updates.
