Biomutant initially launched in May last year for PS4, Xbox One and PC. Following this release, it shifted more than 1m copies - enough that it was able to break even within a week of launch despite a long development (it was first announced all the way back in 2017).

Later this month, the game will be getting new PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions. These will be available as a free upgrade for those that already own the game, and promise 4K resolution, HDR support and a boosted frame-rate "up to 60fps".
