How to unlock the Airglider in Biomutant
The Airglider is one of four upgrades to your little automaton critter friend. Each of these upgrades is tied to a set of side quests known as “mirages”. Each time you complete a mirage quest you’ll get to choose one of the Automaton upgrades.
So to unlock the ability to glide inBiomutant, you should prioritise finding one of these mirages. At each mirage location is a big fluffy ursine character holding a lantern. They look like this:
Interact with these fellas to relive a memory and unlock an Automaton upgrade.
Here’s the location of one such mirage spot, and it’s fairly close to where you begin so it won’t take long to reach:
Here’s one location where you can unlock the Airglider.

Interact with the character and you’ll start to relive a memory. Each memory in this set of side quests is a practice fight with a disciple of your Mooma’s way back in the day. It doesn’t matter whether you win or lose this fight; you’ll still get the choice to upgrade your Automaton at the end.
To gain the ability to glide, pick the “Unlock the Airglider” option when prompted.
How to glide in Biomutant
With the Airglider unlocked, you will now be able to glide in Biomutant. It’s not the fastest method of getting around (that accolade will obviously have to go to theBiomutant fast travelpoints), but it’s faster than walking, and a lot of fun too. To try it out, head to a sheer drop, jump once, then press and hold jump a second time. At the end of your double-jump you’ll whip out the Airglider and start to glide in the direction you’re facing.
You can angle yourself downward to increase the speed at which you drop. To stop gliding, just attack and the glider wings will disappear. Don’t worry, there’s no fall damage in Biomutant.
