Oddworld is coming back!

Abe





Anyone remember this guy? This is Abe, a loveable Mudokon born into slavery and completely ignorant of his people's rich history and culture. He's also the guy who giggled every time he farted. He was the protagonist of the original 1997 PlayStation 1 title: Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee  - Freakiest. Game. Ever.

I often dig out the old PS1 to play it and I was overjoyed to hear today that the people at Just Add Water have announced that they have been working with the developers at Oddworld Inhabitants to hopefully bring back our favorite characters once again, they have said on their website:

Well, in a recent interview with Bitmob’s Toby Davis, Creative Director and co-founder of Oddworld Inhabitants Lorne Lanning has announced that Abe’s first two adventures are destined for PS3:
