Biomutantfeatures six unique classes, each of which comes with its own starting skills and equipment. One of those classes is the Mercenary, but it is not accessed in the same way as the others. This may leave some players slightly confused about exactly how to get the Mercenary class inBiomutant, and this guide looks to offer some clarity on the matter.
To start, it is very important to mention that the Mercenary class is only available as aBiomutantpre-order bonusat the time of writing. While it is possible that players will be able to purchase the class as DLC in the future, only those fans that bought the game ahead of its release can access it for now. With that established, here are details on how players that did pre-orderBiomutantcan unlock Mercenary on various platforms:

While it is very likely thatBiomutantplayerson PS4 will ultimately be able to download the Mercenary Class DLC through the PSN Store on their consoles, that does not appear to be the case currently. However, there is indication that fans can unlock the class by accessing the PlayStation App on a mobile device, locatingBiomutantwithin their Libraries, and selecting Download to Console.

Fans should then tab over to Add-Ons, select the relevant DLC, and install it.
