Abe's Oddysee reconstructed.

<span class="bold">Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty</span>, a critically acclaimed restoration of Abe's Oddysee, is available for pre-order now on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux, with a 10% pre-order discount!

<span class="bold">Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty</span> earns the right to call itself a true remake. It's so much more than just a graphical upgrade, it's a modern retelling of the unforgettable experience that Abe's Oddysee was all these years ago. The unsettlingly beautiful visuals, the disturbingly odd universe, and the unforgivingly difficult gameplay were enough to leave a lasting impression on anyone who encountered Abe's Oddysee. Seventeen years later, <span class="bold">Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty</span> retains the setting, the sounds, and the flavor; all brought up to modern platforming par, and beyond, with updated controls, refined mechanics and a reconstructed experience.

If you pre-order, you'll also receive two pieces of New 'n' Tasty DLC for free:
-Bonus level: Alf's Escape
-Alternative costume: Scrub Abe

<span class="bold">Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty</span> makes a tremendous impression, rose-tinted glasses not required. You can pre-order it now, DRM-free on GOG.com!

darthspudius: That is very good to know, thank you for letting me know. :)
You're welcome.

The controls were the thing that reviewers of the PS4 version picked up on the most, so we fixed them. :)

I will admit that was the main thing I was concerned about. The controls are a big thing for this game obviously. I can't wait to play it. :)

"About: Pre-Purchase Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty today and get the expansive extra level Alf's Escape and the alternative Scrub Abe costume free of charge!"

So no pre-purchase, no extra level? Might have to pass forever, I guess.

Why is it not included in the game?

Because it's an optional extra. If we included it, would you be happy that the price was a little higher as a result? :)

Why is that level optional? Now I have the feeling you cut out content so that people will have an incentive to buy the game before there are reviews about it possibly highlighting terrible problems.

Because it was completed after the game (on PS4) was completed.

It's entirely optional, and is brand new.

As has been said before, by all means wait for reviews and buy afterwards if you're still happy, and once you've beaten the game if you want a tougher challenge, grab the DLC. If not, don't. :)

You know we have a thing called Google that would answer your question. It's not a level stripped from the main game. It's been a known fact for quite a while.

"-Alternative costume: Scrub Abe"

Scrub Abe?


Personally, I'll wait till they're done with whatever DLC they've got planned and buy a "gold" edition.
