Publisher <a href="https://whatoplay.com/developers/thq-nordic/">THQ Nordic</a> just released a countdown for the <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/" title="Switch games">Nintendo Switch</a> launch of its action RPG <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/biomutant/" title="Biomutant for the Nintendo Switch">Biomutant</a>.

The Vienna-based video game publisher announced it would port Biomutant to Switch consoles this year. They have also set a release date for November 30. In turn, they set up a webpage counting the days before Switch's launch.

In Biomutant, players become anthropomorphic characters in a Wung Fu-fable world. Combat mechanics in the game do not only feature melee and shooting. The developers have incorporated martial arts elements into it.

The game's primary campaign takes players into a post-apocalyptic world. The story arc revolved around the 'Tree of Life' and six conflicting factions called 'Tribes'. Players can choose whether to fight or forge alliances with the tribes. It is also up to them to decide the fate of the "Tree of Life."

Biomutant came out in 2021. The open-world RPG first landed on <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/biomutant/">PC</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps5/biomutant/">PS5</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-series-x/biomutant/">Series X|S</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/biomutant/">PS4</a>, and <a href="https://whatoplay.com/xbox-one/biomutant/">Xbox One</a>. Developers from Sweden's <a href="https://experiment101.com/">Experiment 101</a> also ported the game to next-gen consoles a year later.

There had been reports that developers initially wanted to port Biomutant to Nintendo Switch devices in 2022. A Portuguese retailer allegedly released promotional material stating that the game would go live on Switch that year. It remained to be seen whether the information was legitimate.

Biomutant received mixed reviews from gamers and critics alike. Some players claimed the creators had not lived up to their expectations. Others pointed out that while it had stunning visuals and rich lore, its gameplay mechanics failed to distinguish it from other action <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/best/rpg/" title="Best Switch RPGs">RPG</a> titles.

Despite its lukewarm reception, THQ Nordiq reported that the game reached 1 million downloads a month after its debut.
