Isn't this peaceful? Upcoming PlayStation 4 title Biomutant has released a new trailer ahead of its release on 25th May 2021 that focuses entirely on its open world. There's no combat, conversations, or actions to speak of here — it's just relaxing traversal and exploring. Perfect for a breezy weekend once the title launches. Take a look at the trailer above.
We catch glimpses of dilapidated buildings set against the sunrise, some impressive little villages, and snowy areas which could result in a cold. Vehicles also feature, showcasing what the Biomutant can use to get around quicker. There's an airship, a sort of jet ski, a horse made of bones, a gigantic bat, and some sort of mechanical hand, among others. Yeah, Biomutant looks pretty cool. Don't forget it will cost £54.99/$59.99 for a digital copy upon release.

I've had Biomutant pre-ordered since summer of 2017. It's been one of my most anticipated games since. I can't believe it's finally almost here!
@bpomber Wow! Since 2017?!
So what do you do in this game then?
Oh my godddd I hope this game delivers. I have been excited for it for years and everything about it looks great to me. I love love love the character designs and the color palette and the concept and everything oh boy I feel like a kid again
@kyleforrester87 You play as the porn parody of Rocket Racoon and just potter about the garden reading Alan Titchmarsh’s smutty novels.
@bpomber Thanks for the date. This is one of those games that I feel came out years ago already. I think at one point I was even interested in it but now I hardly remember it. I pre-ordered Bayonetta 3 in 2018, still waiting on that one. 😉
I have the Collector's Edition with statue pre-ordered. Absolutely cannot wait, but will have to as I'll be well into Mass Effect at the time of it's release, and I really cannot see me finishing the first game in just 11 days, let alone all 3. Still, should be awesome...
@TraCuz- Yeah Best Buy had it up for pre-order shortly after it was revealed in 2017. If I remember correctly, it was supposed to come out in 2018 initially. Then it just kept getting pushed back and it seemed like it was in development hell. So I'm happy that the release date is finally near.
@bpomber The trailers look promising! I hope it exceeds your expectations!
@bpomber Found my comment from 2017, think I forgot all about the game b/c I never liked the title. 😂
@kyleforrester87 Here's an 11 minute trailer. Though it's from 4 years ago so who knows, it could be New Pokemon Snap now.🤷

@rjejr there is a much more recent trailer that showcased lots of combat and boss fights, from just a few months ago I believe. It was posted on this site!
Looks amazing! Life in the old PS4 yet, eh?
But no physical release?
@sanderson72 It has a physical release. It even has a collector's edition being released.
@kyleforrester87 More recent trailer, I'm on a roll.😀
@Logonogo I'm working my way thru every single article on PS, in chronological order, reading all the comments, to see what I've thought about this game over the years. And I was just about to post a link to this vid from last June, not sure if it's the one you meant but at least it's fairly recent(er).😁

Hey you were right, 1 more from a month ago, though it is only a minute.

Ya know, if there is any decent story at all in here, like Ratchet & Clank, I could see me really liking this. Sunset Overdrive turned out to be 1 of my favorite games and I had little interest in it to start. Guess we'll see.
This game looks wonderful and I can't believe this is a PS4 game. Goes to show the system still has loads of life left in it yet.
Been one of my most anticipated for years now.
So excited for this. It's my only non-Japanese studio made game that i'm really looking forward to.
Good luck to Experiment 101 and THQ Nordic.
@rjejr Wow you are thorough! Thank you. I am beyond excited but I want to temper expectations given recent releases coming up a bit short
@Logonogo You're welcome. And there were only like 8 articles over 5 years averaging about 20 comments each I think I only commented on 3of them - so I figured why not?
So finally got around to watching this trailer, and I have to say it looks like this game puts the jank in janky. But having grown up with Davey & Goliath and Gumby I kinda like it. Claymation, paper crafts, plastic, I like that look.
Just remembered I have $75 credit in the Sony store from a new credit card, may put in an order for this.
It has my curiosity, but I'll need to see some reviews before it has my attention.
@bpomber Oh thanks! The above piece only says that it'll be "£54.99/$59.99 for a digital copy upon release".
I'll start hunting for a disc then!
@RubyCarbuncle. It was announced for ps4 since 2014.and while the game looks good ps4 is extremely powerful.especially ps4 pro.word up son
@Xenomorph_79 I think there's an option to toggle the narrorator on and off or at least limit their input. I agree, though, I will wait for reviews but am cautiously excited.
Looking at the trailer, I can't believe its a PS4 game instead of PS5. Never heard of this until now but I'm intrigued. Definitely some BotW influence there.
Very nice. Looks like an amazing world to explore. Cant wait for it to finally come out.
It's picked a really crap time to come out, what with Re8, Mass Effect trilogy and others. This will be forgotten about is my worry. I'll pick this up for around 40 quid though, shame the next gen version seems to have been cancelled.
This looks fantastic, so glad this didn't get canceled from the long development.
Does anyone know if this is 60fps on ps5? Thanks in advance!
@kyleforrester87 my understanding is that the tree of life’s roots are under attack. You traverse an open world with six tribes, three who want to protect the tree, three who want to destroy it. Who you ally with is up to you and can be changed anytime. The story progresses at your will. Your created character can be modified and your stats are reflected physically (high intelligence = larger head). Combat is varied and based around the theme of Kung-fu. Looks like a mix of Zelda and Darksiders. Of course I could be wrong on all this and it may release as a moldy potato.
This is the first time I’ve seen a trailer for this game that really piques my interest, but it’s THQ, so I’ll wait to see the reviews.
Wait, this releases on the 25th of May?
I thought the release date was pushed back to like late Q3.
May is stacked with releases.
It’s seems like such an odd game but I can’t wait to play it.
I wonder how they pitched this idea? 🤣
I'm getting a botw/immortals fenyx feeling from this game.
I am so hyped for this for some reason. The visual art style compensates the fact that the graphics are not that good anymore!
@Deadlyblack - Nah it never got delayed, had my eyes on every bit of news related to this game, you might be thinking of another game perhaps?
@JustPlainLoco Maybe, but I'm excited it's releasing so soon! Really looking forward to this game ever since it's reveal.
The main protagonist looks like a Red Panda version of Snake Plissken.
Been looking forward to this since before i had a ps4!
Ratchet: Zero Dawn? It looks pretty cool, actually. I'll wait some for review scores to drop though before committing.
Looks great. I just hope that the creativity unlocked by such a unique premise and setting has been taken advantage of. I will wait for reviews but I will likely buy it.
Biomutant still looks beautiful, but will be waiting for reviews and release build gameplay.
