Player Affinity writes: "The first Oddworld game showed up on the Playstation in 1997, and there have been three more games since then, not including the various handheld versions. The most recent Oddworld was Stranger’s Wrath from 2005, which was only available on the XBox. That’s XBox 1 for you young’uns. The first two Oddworld games were ported over to PC, but 2001’s Munch’s Oddysee, and Stranger, were only available on the XBox, and were never even patched to run on the 360. That’s why fans of cult games are so happy that all four Oddworld games have arrived on PC in one digital pack called The OddBoxx."
17 years after its initial release, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath has returned -- and has never been better than this.
If you missed the news, Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath is out now on the Switch via the Nintendo eShop. But there’s a physical edition that is now available for pre-order at Amazon.
As one of the last major releases for the original Xbox, Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath is also one of the most memorable games on the system, taking the series to new places with a cross between third-person platforming and first-person shooting. With its unique weapons system, open-ended mission design and fascinating story, it's a game that always felt special and still holds up today - and it's recently received an impressive Switch conversion.
