Ever since its announcement in 2017,Biomutanthas long been one of the more highly-anticipated video games. Its release is finally around the corner, but there are still details about the RPG that are still unknown. One major question that interested parties may have is whether or notBiomutantsupports any sort of multiplayer.
Single-player-only games can be extremely successful. Games likeHorizon Zero Dawn, God of War,orThe Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wildall found triumph in terms of reviews, sales, and player satisfaction without the need for player vs player (PVP) multiplayer or coop. That being said, many games benefit greatly from the added features that multiplayer provides. So it is perfectly reasonable to wonder ifBiomutantwill support some sort of multiplayer mode or feature when it releases in just a few days.

Does Biomutant Support Multiplayer (PVP) or Co-op?
On whether or not there is a PVP mode, the answer is no.Biomutantis a narrative action role-playing experience. One could hope that there would be PVP experiences to be had, especially asBiomutantallows players to create and build their own class. However, that is not the case.Biomutantdoes not support any sort of deathmatch, objective-based, or arena-style game mode that pits players against other players.
That would leave coop play as a possibility, since players could theoreticallytake down enemies inBiomutanttogether as they level up, improve, and progress through the game. However, co-op also is not inBiomutant.Neither PVP multiplayer or coop multiplayer is a part ofBiomutantat launch, as the game is strictly a single-player focused journey.
Could Biomutant Support Multiplayer (PVP) or Co-op in the Future?
The no multiplayer or co-op forBiomutantmay be a bit unsatisfactory of an answer for some, but that is the case for now. Hypothetically that could change ifBiomutantwent on to be very successful. Many believe thatBiomutantcould be one of the next big hits, and if that is the case, developer Experiment 101 may have the financial resources to support the game post-launch. Something like a co-op update could be in the future. Or a sequel could, of course, have endless possibilities.
But all of that is conjecture. Right now,Biomutantis single-player only and nothing else. There will bea lot for players to explore inBiomutant,with varied biomes, characters to meet, and more. It will all be done as a solo experience.
Biomutantreleases on May 25 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
