Oddworld Inhabitants has announced it’s bringing Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath HD to Xbox and PlayStation next week.
The 2005 action adventure originally got a HD remaster all the way back in 2011 for the PlayStation 3 and PC. Eventually, it’d get another dusting off and upgrade when it arrived on the Nintendo Switch in 2020. This latest version gives the game a further polish still, now supporting 4K and 60FPS on Series X|S and PS5.
If you’re not familiar, Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath was a Western-themed entry in the long-running Oddworld series. Rather than following series favourite Abe, we’re following Stranger. He’s a lone bounty hunter who must capture wanted outlaws, dead or alive, to help pay for a mysterious live-saving operation.
We were full of praise in our original review back in the day: “As a work of art then, Stranger’s Wrath is almost perfect. It looks stunning, with probably the best graphics we’ll ever see on the Xbox. The characterization is incredible: voices and sounds only complement one of the most detailed worlds we’ve ever seen.”
You’ll get to find out if those memories hold up when Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath HD arrives on February 11. While there isn’t a trailer yet for the latest version, you can refresh your memory with the Nintendo Switch trailer underneath the tweet.
Yup, you guessed it, Inhabitants. Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath is coming to current #PlayStation and #Xbox consoles NEXT WEEK on February 11th!
(Consider it an early Valentine's day gift.)
We hope you all are as excited as we are! https://t.co/tk1K7S6lSL
