Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee & Stranger's Wrath FINALLY coming to the PC

[Lucid]

From an interview with Lorne Lanning.

TD: How big is the Oddworld universe in the grand scheme of things? Any chance of seeing another Oddworld game in the next five years?

LL: Oddworld is a creation that we’ll likely never sell or part with. It wasn’t created for that purpose. It was created with the intent of creating modern myths in pop culture mediums. Nurturing these myths and their casts [of characters] to actually mean something in an increasingly meaningless landscape of blatant consumerism.

So yes, we will be seeing more from Oddworld. Regarding the library, we are in the process of converting Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee and Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath to the PC, so that all four of the major Oddworld games will be re-releasing this winter in a package called "The Oddbox." This will be the Abe games, Munch, and Stranger as one package for Steam's digital distribution network, as well as a few other digital distribution outlets.

Regarding new material, we hope to have an announcement soon, but I’ve been saying that for awhile now so I’ll just shut up and hope for the best.

Better late than never, eh?
I'm really excited to finally get to play Stranger's Wrath.

Finally. I'm waiting this since they said they might consider a port to release on Steam.

 

[Remus]

I'm a bit confused on the story, so are these games taking place on the same planet as in Abe's Exodus?

 

[Raziaar]

I loved the first games. I hated Stranger's Wrath.

 

[taviow]

Always wanted to play those games! Great news!

I know its the same universe, just not sure if its the same world so to speak...

 

[Bob_Marley]

Kick ass.

Do want Stranger's Wrath, somewhat ambivilent about munch's oddysee.

Munch's Oddysee isn't as good as the first 2 because of it being 3d, it just doesn't suit it
