All performance. No bells and whistles that can get in the way.

The difference between victory and defeat can be a matter of milliseconds. Each mouse in the Prime lineup is equipped with revolutionary Optical Magnetic switches that are engineered to last 5x longer than the competition, providing lightning-fast response times that harness the power of light. The Prestige OM switches actuate at quantum speeds so that gamers can beat the competition to the trigger every time. Additionally, not all clicks are made the same. The prestige switch was designed to deliver the most satisfying crispy clicks possible. Its unique design utilizes a magnetic core to ensure that the 100 millionth left or right click feels just as crispy as the very first.

Performance is standard. Features are optional. Gamers can choose from three options based on their style of play: Prime, Prime+ and Prime Wireless. 

• Prime – Play like a Pro. Co-developed with the world’s leading competitive esports players, the Prime mouse has a battle-tested shape meant for sustained comfort at the highest levels of play.

A hyper durable design can withstand the most intense wear and tear, and a new textured matte finish ensures a non-slip grip. A TrueMove Pro sensor provides esports pro performance, and onboard customization makes selecting settings easy.
• Prime+ – Play like a Pro with customization options. The Prime+ mouse takes the battle-tested shape, hyper-durable design and new textured matte finish and adds full onboard customization that requires no additional software. Its lightweight form factor weighs in at only 71g and a TrueMove Pro+ sensor provides pro esports performance with an additional sensor to detect lift-off distance.
• Prime Wireless – Play like a Pro with wireless freedom. The Prime Wireless mouse takes all the features of the Prime mouse, but in wireless from with a best-in-class battery that provides over 100 hours of gameplay plus fast charging. Weighing in at only 80g, every component was carefully optimized for wireless gaming. A TrueMove Air sensor provides pro performance with true 1-to-1 tracking, and onboard customization makes selecting settings easy.

Winning is everything. To take home championship trophies, you need all of your senses firing on all cylinders. And when it comes to gaming audio, the Arctis Prime headset builds on the award-winning heritage of the Arctis franchise and introduces a battle-tested, comfortable, lightweight, high-performance headset that delivers signature Arctis high fidelity sound.

Welcome to Biomutant: Highly Anticipated Open-World-RPG is Out Now Worldwide!

Sydney, Australia, May 26^th, 2021 –  It all started out with an announcement at gamescom back in 2017… After all the years of anticipation, it feels surreal to us that the time has finally come. Open-world, post-apocalyptic Wung-Fu fable RPG Biomutant is now available worldwide on PlayStation®4, Xbox One™, and PC.

Biomutant’s ever-evolving hero has been called a raccoon, a red panda, and even a cat but what remains most important is its unique, martial-arts-style combat system that mixes melee, shooting, and mutant abilities. Players can look forward to unleashing these powers against surprise attacks from some of the most outlandish enemies ever confronted. Biomutant’s lush and vibrant gamescape, spanning everything from snowy tundras to rocky deserts, serves as the backdrop to an epic fable of one creature’s journey to save his broken world.

We appreciate the patience we received from fans, critics, and partners over the years. Everyone at Experiment 1O1 and THQ Nordic hopes that you will have a great time with the game. At this point, there is nothing more to say except: Welcome to Biomutant!

About Biomutant

BIOMUTANT® is an open-world, post-apocalyptic Wung-Fu fable RPG, with unique martial art styled combat system allowing you to mix melee, shooting, and mutant ability action.

• A NEW TAKE ON 3rd PERSON COMBAT

The martial arts style combat system allows you maximum freedom of movement and agility while mixing shooting, melee, and powers from your mutations. Learning new Wung-Fu combat forms through progression and learning from masters you’ll meet, will constantly add to your choices and make sure combat never gets old.

• EVOLVE YOUR GAME-PLAY

You’ll be able to re-code your genetic structure to change the way you look and play. This will of course affect your attributes and in addition to this, exposure to bio-contamination in the world will lead to mutations like the Turtleform and Mucus Bubble, while exposure to radioactivity found in bunkers from the old world will affect your mind and unlock psi-mutations like telekinesis, levitation and more.

• NEXT LEVEL OF CRAFTING

You are totally free when crafting weapons. Mix and match parts to create your own unique 1H or 2H slash and crush weapons. Revolvers, rifles and shotguns and add modifications like cork-screws and battery-powered chainsaw modules to bio-contaminated sludge vials adding to your combat arsenal. There are even characters you’ll meet that’ll craft cool stuff for you, like bionic wings, a jump-pack and even let you modify your Automaton – the scrap-toy sidekick!

• GEAR UP FOR ADVENTURE

You have full freedom when equipping your character. Not only when it comes to choosing weapons you created, but what type of gear you wear. Equip a gas-mask and an oxygen tank for exploring the Dead Zones, thermos-resistant clothes for venturing into cryonic areas or protective gear for taking on bio-contaminated creatures, the choice is up to you.

• SURVIVE IN A VIBRANT OPEN WORLD

You are free to explore the world and what lies beneath its surface, by foot, mech, jet-ski, air-balloon or area unique mounts. Explore the dying wildland, the tunnels and bunker networks of the underworld, and find your way up the mountains or out in the archipelago. There are lots of discoveries to be made, mysteries to unravel, creatures to confront, and weird characters to meet in this vibrant and colourful world.

• AN UNUSUAL STORY WITH AN UNUSUAL END

Your actions play a major part in the unfolding of a story where End is coming to the New World. A plague is ruining the land and the Tree-of-Life is bleeding death from its roots. The Tribes stand divided, in need of someone strong enough to unite them or bring them all down…

You are guided through the world by a Storyteller that narrates every step of your journey, but it’s your actions and choices that’ll decide how your story of survival ends.
