I enjoyed Biomutant and it's one I've been meaning to get back to finish up the Platinum for a while now. Well, it looks like I'll soon have the option to do that with a native PS5 version boasting "ultra-fast loading times, native 4k resolution, HDR support, and up to 60 FPS." Yup, Biomutant is joining the ranks of next-gen updated games on September 6th for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Best news of all, while the native version will retail for $40, anyone who owned the last-ten version of the game will get the upgrade for free.
