Biomutant is over a year old at this point, believe it or not, and even though it launched after the next-gen consoles dropped, it was an Xbox One title at heart. Now though, THQ Nordic has revealed a native next-gen port for the action RPG, which will deliver proper Xbox Series X|S versions of the game.
The upgrade — which is free for current owners — launches on September 6th, with a separate $40 release also arriving that day if you're jumping into Biomutant for the very first time. Here's some info on the various modes featured in the new release, across Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S.
- Xbox Series X Quality: 4K Resolution, 30FPS
- Xbox Series X 'Quality Unleashed': 4K Resolution, Unlocked Frame Rate (Avg. 50-60FPS)
- Xbox Series X Performance: 1440p Resolution, 60FPS Locked
- Xbox Series S Quality: 1440p Resolution, 30FPS
- Xbox Series S 'Quality Unleashed': 1440p Resolution, Unlocked Frame Rate (Avg. 50-60FPS)
- Xbox Series S Performance: 1080p Resolution, 60FPS Locked
Oh, and here's a look at some next-gen Biomutant screenshots ahead of its September 6 release date on Xbox Series X|S:

Nice. Underrated game IMO.
I took it for a spin last year on my old PS4, it was a bit buggy/ blurry, but fun nonetheless. There's definitely some potential there! I'll surely double-dip on my Series S later on .
Seems to be a proper update, visuals look quite a bit better!
I got it when it first came out but didn't give it a real try. Maybe after the update. Currently playing Recore and that game deserves a lot more praise.
@AstraeaV Definitely wait for the upgrade. Currently, the quality mode has incorrect frame-pacing, and the performance mode is woefully unstable.
Well I own it, so maybe I’ll give it another shot
The idea of this game was so much cooler than the actual game itself. I beat it when it first came out on the Series X, but it got kinda boring fast. I expected the customization to be a lot more than it was and i was hoping for more. It was still a good game, but i wanted more out of it considering it was a cool concept.
First f1 22, and now biomutant. These devs know how to optimize the lil fella! 1080p/60hz and/or 1440p/50-60fps.
One I bought on spur of moment when it launched, and it was pretty fun to play. That said, dont remember a damned thing about it!
Nice option on the series s if all developers did the same it would be perfect , I am looking at you cyberpunk devs.
Cool - only reason I didn't play this was that it was last gen.
Quality "unleashed" is actually a great idea for future hardware. It's not the first game to have it but all should.
I loved the DF take on Biomutant. Is Rich still playing it?
