New Oddworld game in the works

16 July 2010

Developer Just Add Water has announced that they will be releasing a new Oddworld game. Oddworld: Abe’s Odyssey and Abe’s Exodus have taken on almost cult-like status, most probably because the Oddworld universe and its inhabitants are so memorable. 

Developer Oddworld Inhabitants is responsible for the Oddworld games released so far. Just Add Water has been working closely with themfor the past 12 months. “What started off as brief discussions in June 2009, to now working on multiple projects, across multiple platforms.”

“To work with the team at Oddworld has been amazing; being able to tap the minds of Lorne Lanning, Sherry McKenna and others has been fantastic,” said Just Add Water’s Managing Director Stewart Gilray.

“It’s almost symbiotic in that when something moves forward on any of the projects we just start chatting about new items, or what if we do this,” Gilray continued. “We’re all extremely excited to breathe life into the Oddworld universe and indeed to let it breathe life into us.”
