Oddworld Inhabitants have announced an Oddworld: Soulstorm Enhanced Edition, a new release for their Oddworld: Abe’s Exodus remake.

Oddworld: Soulstorm Enhanced Edition is launching across Windows PC (via the Epic Games Store), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5 sometime in later November 2021. This is essentially firming up the previously announced Xbox release for the game, which you can read more about here.

The new enhanced edition is bringing further improved gameplay mechanics and motion code, all of its previously released post-launch updates, and new content too.

While a digital version is planned for $39.99, a physical Day One version is coming to Xbox for $49.99, as well as a $149.99 Collector’s version. The collector’s edition comes with an exclusive embossed metal case, 9” Abe figurine, 160-page art book, three art prints, a mining company keychain, tattoo and tribal stickers. Pre-orders also get you access to the game’s soundtrack and digital art booklet.

Here’s a rundown on the original game:

Abe’s epic story explodes in this all new adventure

Oddworld: Soulstorm is an explosive action adventure game complete with crafting, scavenging, platforming, and sneaking. It’s the story of an impossible flight against an opposing force that will use every means at their well-funded disposal, from propaganda to brutal force to deadly violence, to stop Abe and the uprising.

You play as Abe, a reluctant hero who inadvertently sparked an uprising and now must lead his fellow Mudokons in their fight for freedom against the Magog Cartel and the planet’s ruling power.

Whether he is ready for it or not, the entire fate of the Mudokon species is in Abe’s (and your) hands. Accept his destiny and galvanize societal change, or fail and see his entire race eradicated, the choice is in your hands.

Explore massive cinematic scale and 2.9D environments filled with breathtaking visuals. Scavenge for supplies, craft weapons, solve puzzles, and safely deliver all of your followers to freedom.

Oddworld: Soulstorm Features

• Action Adventure Platforming: Evolving the platforming genre by adding RPG-lite elements with player agency to play as they like, whether aggressively or passively.
• Narrative: A dark storyline with a twisted sense of humor that shines a light on the ironies that exist in the human condition.
• 2.9D: Epic environments with massive scale to explore by going into the world, rather than being limited to the traditional side scrolling platformer sense.
• Quarma: Quarma is a real time feedback feature that reflects your actions in the game and will influence Abe, his followers, his abilities, and your score throughout the game.
• Scavenger’s Economy: Pickpocket enemies, loot lockers, sift through trash cans to acquire resources. Exchange them at vending machines to get products that give you more agency in how you chose to conquer the game’s many challenges.
• Crafting: Use scavenged resources and vending machine products to craft items to use as weapons or tools against characters and obstacles.
• Strength in Numbers: The more followers you save, the stronger the uprising becomes. Gift crafted items to followers. It’s up to you to decide whether they will be aggressive or passive.
• Gameplay: Intense action platforming meets stealth and platform puzzling. Choose whether to burn it down, blow it up or simply try to sneak around it – but beware the deadly environments and enemies at every turn.
• Leaderboards: All levels offer a tallying system, leaderboards, achievements, and badges.

Oddworld: Soulstorm was originally released for Windows PC (via the Epic Games Store) and both PlayStation 4 and 5 back in April 2021. In case you missed it, you can find our thorough review for the game here.
