GamerNode's Mike Murphy writes: "The battle is raging in furious chaos. Soldiers are dropping left and right. My team and I are trying to hold on to the objective points to win the battle. Our enemies had fought back our previous advance and now we find ourselves back in our original stations trying to put a halt to this counterattack. I take as many North Korean forces with me as I can, but the number is too many. I fall in battle..."
Alex & Mike talk Biomutant, a game from Experiment 101/THQ Nordiq you likely have not heard of. While the AAA side of the industry tends to homogenization and imitative, cinematic presentation, “AA” games remain creative and innovative in 2021. Drawing on inspirations as varied as Dark Souls, third person shooters & kung fu cinema, Biomutant is Ratchet & Clank on acid, developed by a team of 20 people.

Remember THQ? They published such games as Avatar: The Last Airbender, Darksiders I & II, the Destroy All Humans series, Homefront, the Red Faction series, and Saint's Row 1-3. Almost as famous as their games were the THQ marketing stunts, including a Golden Wii.
This multiplayer sounds excellent.
I have been waiting for this game ever since I saw the first trailer. I have a feeling the single-player campaign will be great, and the multiplayer will be awesome!
