Mutations in Biomutant are a type of Ability that the Protagonist can acquire by interacting with bio-contamination pools found in the world. While similar to Perks, Mutations are more physical in nature and manifest in the form of weird abilities like belching moths from the Protagonist's mouth, growing mushrooms out of nowhere, and many more. Mutations form the core of unique abilities which alter the way the Protagonist interacts with enemies, the environment and its various hazards and obstacles.
