No word as tot he status of the employees of Experiment 101 of what THQ Nordic plans to do with the rest of the company's assets, but it does give a glimmer of hope that we'll see Biomutant sooner than expected!

Experiment 101 is currently working on Biomutant® for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. More details on one of the biggest surprise hits of this year's Gamescom will be revealed in 2018.
