With the holidays upon us, expect the industry to plunge into a deep hibernation during the next few weeks. While most developers, publishers, and PR people will be taking a much-needed reprieve, at last one person will be active through the new year: the employee responsible for pulling the giant e-switch with opens the flood gates for downloadable content.

Here is a look at the new HD version of the game played on a PS5. I am not a fan of the camera system which makes viewing in third person harder than it should be but the game looks great otherwise.
I liked the game back when it was released, especially the squirrel-gun of course (were they squirrels? Not sure) and the other weapons, and some fun enemies. A genuinely original game, but I doubt I’ll bother with the remaster. When you look at the textures they really feel low-res and outdated.
Neil writes: "For many the mere mention of an Oddworld game ushers up memories of Abe and Munch, even more so after the recent release of the brilliant Oddworld: Soulstorm Enhanced Edition. But there's more to this universe and some seventeen years ago Stranger rocked up to deliver his wrath to the OG Xbox. It's fair to say it didn't go down as well as expected. Now though he's back, as Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD hits Xbox and PlayStation."
Excellent game. It was a bad decision not to launch on PlayStation initially.
I have it on PC, but highly recommend those with a Playstation or Xbox to give this one a go. Great game.
Ok, good game, i finished it on og Xbox, PSVita and PS3. But... enough, wasn't it better if they made a part 2 or something?
Shame, PS5 and XBSX could have easily ran this at 120fps. Even if they targeted a lower resolution like 1440p or 1800p still would have been worth it.
Switch has received a few different entries in the Oddworld series, and it now looks like they’ll soon be bundled together.
Never played Oddworld. Was it any good?
Stranger's Wrath was really fun. One of my favorite Xbox games besides Halo 1 and 2.
thanks for posting.
not much this week.
Hopefully Oddworld doesn't have half the problems the Oddbox had. I'll wait and see on this one.
