We already know thatAbe’s OddyseeandStranger’s Wrathwill get HD remakes and hit consoles as well as PC. Fans of the series will be pleased to know, however, that yet more goodies are on the way — specificallyMunch’s OddyseeHD for PSN (and unconfirmed platforms), andHand of Oddfor tablets.
Munch’s Oddyseewas one of only two sequels to continue the Oddworld Inhabitants’ original plan of having five distinct games based on five original characters — the incompletion of which still disturbs me today. It originally hit Xbox and PC, as didStranger’s Wrath. Both are available in the PC’sOddBoxx, which has been confirmed as coming to PS3 in the near future.
The biggest surprise to me is the revival ofHand of Odd. I was a huge fan of Oddworld in my school days, and still remember intently reading about this game during math class. Unfortunately it got scrapped, and I never expected to see it again. Crazy to think that I’m talking about it for the first time since the 90s.
