Sony’s been a big believer in Oddworld: Soulstorm, showcasing the Oddworld: Abe’s Exodus remake on multiple occasions. And now the title appears to have a release window: Spring 2021 on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4. Oddworld Inhabitants confirmed the date as part of an all-new trailer at The Game Awards overnight, which we’ve embedded above.
The press release reveals that the title will evolve the platform genre “by adding RPG-lite elements with player agency” and adds that the cinematic side-scrolling presentation will allow you to “explore by going into the world”. Sounds like a relatively ambitious project with sky-high production values, but are you interested in more Oddworld at this point?

Been interested in this since it was originally just the Abe's Exoddus remake. Now it sounds like a much more ambitious and genuinely new Oddworld game. Very keen for this.
I bought the previous 3 games on Switch just to have physical copies of them in my collection. Lorne Lanning is completely eccentric (and talented!) and he and his Oddworld Inhabitants team are superb visionaries and now they've had a serious cash injection to bring those visions to fruition (Lanning has said on record, cash-flow was always a problem over the years)
This looks to surpass anything they've done to date, it looks absolutely beautiful and you'll be guaranteed there'll be nothing like it out there, and you'll have a HUGE grin from ear to ear whilst playing it!
Welcome back Mr Lanning (and Abe!)
Great! Never completed the original so gonna get this for sure.
YESSSSS!!! DAY ONE!!
This has just went to the top of my most anticipated list.
This game feels so big and bombastic. It feels like they went for bigger, simply because they could. 🤨
Day one for sure. It looks wonderful and I can't wait.
Oddworld Inhabitants are one of my favourite studios and a shame but never played the Exodus before, only all of their other titles like Munch, Stranger's Wrath etc. So many fun moments and a LOT of creativity. Waiting for this one like never before, will be an instant buy:))))
Nice to finally have a release window! Now to see more gameplay/story
