What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“X Mutation is a game developed by 2 people, both of us are big fan of rogue-lite action game, so we put a lot effort trying to make the game to be a "perfect" rogue-lite action game in our mind. While we believe the game is very playable, there are still additional features we would like to add for the game to feel “complete”. With the game in Early Access, we can continue development on X Mutation while involving the community, get their suggestions and feedbacks.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“For at least one year, but ultimately we will continue the development of X Mutation until we feel like the game and its content are at a quality we consider completed.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We have a few plans in mind, we will consider add one or few of them base on the feedbacks from the community:
  • Add multi-player mode to the game.
  • Add more style of maps, more mobs, more bosses, more gears to the game.
  • Add a new female character for player to select.
  • Add Work Shop support.
We will also listen to the feedbacks from the community for adding more features.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version of X Mutation contains a solid experience with a lot of content. We have 100+ unique mutations, 50+ mobs, 6 unique Bosses for player to randomly encounter. The map is fully procedural generated, every time you play the game, the map will be completely different. We believe the current state of the game can provide players a very fun and "rogue-lite" game experience.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“X Mutation will be offered at a lower price while it’s in Early Access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We will be involving the community through Steam Community where players are welcome to leave their feedback and suggestions for new features or for balancing changes. Any update or patch will be fully transparent and include patch notes.”

About This Game

X-Mutation: Master the Mutation Combat

Developed by just two dedicated creators, X-Mutation is a hardcore top-down rogue-lite 3D action game that challenges the limits of your tactical and strategic skills. As a subject of a relentless biological experiment, transform your body into formidable weapons to survive against the monstrous hordes from the Otherworld.

Dynamic Combat and Strategic Mastery

Arm yourself with a selection of over 100 mutations, configuring up to four weapons and five passive abilities to tailor a combat style that thrives on smart decisions and strategic planning. Every choice impacts your survival, urging you to optimize your approach against increasingly difficult odds. Progress in battles earns you talent points, which strategically enhance abilities on a dynamically generated talent map, boosting stats and unlocking permanent buffs for your character.

Innovative Combat Mechanics and Tactical Gameplay

X-Mutation blends complex dungeon crawler systems into a top-down action format, featuring over 30 distinct attributes along with a myriad of Buffs & DoTs that interact in multifaceted ways. Manage five types of damage—Physical, Fire, Frost, Lightning, and Water—each with unique properties, to create tactical combinations that can decisively turn the tide of battle.

Key Features

  • Dual Firing Modes: Opt between manual precision for strategic strikes or auto-fire for optimal coverage.
  • Elemental Reactions: Utilize tactical advantages like slowing enemies with Water damage, or setting off chain reactions with Lightning against "Wet" foes.

  • Dynamic Level Progression: Choose from three randomly generated upgrades with each level-up to enhance your mutations and their combat effectiveness.

  • Unpredictable 3D Arenas: Every run introduces a new array of terrains, monsters, and bosses, crafted to ensure no two experiences are alike. Master the art of movement with jumping and rolling to navigate these challenging landscapes.
  • Rich Enemy Variety: Confront over 50 unique monsters and 12 daunting bosses that test your strategic acumen.

  • Comprehensive Customization: Adjust every battle element through 30 different settings to perfectly match your strategic preferences.
