Abe the loveable Mudokon from one of 1997’s best PlayStation releases Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee looks set to make a return to Oddworld as Oddworld Inhabitants has joined forces with UK-based game developer Just Add Water (JAW) in order to spawn a number of games in the Oddworld franchise which will be developed for 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. We’re all extremely excited to breathe life into the Oddworld universe and indeed to let it breathe life into us.”
 
JAW didn’t provide any details on the forthcoming Oddworld titles and just stated that it will be announcing more specifics about the projects that it is currently working with Oddworld Inhabitants on, over the coming weeks and months.
