May 24, 2021 - 11:00am EST Creating an open world RPG is no easy feat. You have to worry about the large scope of the world, filling it with quests, interesting locations, and characters. There's also the need for engaging combat and loot mechanics, character customization, and stats. It's a complex and lengthy process, which is likely why few developers have a go at this genre, let alone as their debut project. The team at Experiment 101 was unafraid to face this challenge, and while it took them years longer than originally announced, the action RPG Biomutant will finally launch this week as their first game. Unfortunately, it was not worth the wait.
