PlayStation 5 users will be devastated to hear the sad news that Experiment 101 has for them. The developers have scrapped the development of Biomutant in Native 4K quality for the PS5 just days before the release.
Developers of the game, THQ Nordic, took to Twitter to reveal the reason for this change. The tweet reads, “Due to technical reasons, we deactivated native 4k on PS5 for the release version of the game.” It also adds that “Biomutant is currently running at native 1080p upscaled to 4k on PS5.”

While PlayStation seems to be facing yet another backward compatibility issue, it is smooth sailing for their Xbox counterparts. In comparison, the Xbox One version of the game will run at 4K / 60fps “with dynamic resolution” on Series X, and 1440p / 30fps on Series S.
Biomutant now joins Cyberpunk 2077, Star Wars: Squadrons, Call of Duty: Warzone, and Rocket League as games which have received performance updates on the Xbox Series X but not PS5.

Developer Experiment 101 says that Biomutant is a “post-apocalyptic Kung-Fu fable RPG” which is a fitting description. Based on the game’s trailer it looks like nothing we have ever seen before. Players will have to navigate the post-apocalyptic world destroyed by an oil spill and craft weapons to defeat enemies.
