Biomutant: Ability and Mutation Description

Biomutants allow players to enhance their characters in various ways, for example the main method through various Abilities and Mutations. Each Mutation and Wung Fu ability in Biomutant can change dynamics. Can open the game a bit, especially with stronger skills.

In Biomutant also players can mix and match different Mutations and unlock abilities and Wung Fu Perks to give them a sizeable advantage in encounters.
