Oddworld Inhabitants’ Lorne Lanning saidback in Aprilthat plans for future games in the charming and strangeOddworldseries have been put on hold. But a Twitter account supposedly penned by series’ protagonist Abe is causing some to speculate that there’s a new game coming sooner than we thought.
The tweets from “Abe” primarily referenceOddworldplot elements which lead up to the events inAbe’s Oddysee.An interaction with a follower specifically mentions “2.5” in response to a fervent and somewhat ambiguous request for “2 Dimensions.” So, that could be something, right? It could be a downloadable addition to theOddworldfranchise in 2.5D, right? RIGHT?
Or it could be marketing aimed at selling the Oddbox collection of the series which has been delayed but is expected to arrive on Steam soon.
Or it could be nothing at all. The still-unconfirmed Twitter account also says that there will be a new Oddworld site in July and we’ve been waiting on that forfour years. I’m gong to be cautiously pessimistic on this one and assume that someone is toying with me until Lanning pops up and proves otherwise.
