Oddworld: Soulstorm
Weird Games in 2020
The Oddworld series returns in 2020 with Oddworld: Soulstorm, a more or less remake of Abe’s Exoddus from back in the day. The Oddworld series is, well, odd in the way that it handles both its humor, story, and gameplay mechanics.
I mean, in Abe’s Oddysee, Abe can fart and giggle. Now, mix that with an overarching and blatant narrative about the injustices and indecencies about slavery and you get #Oddworld.
The released trailers and sneak peeks for Soulstorm don’t paint a defining picture but from what we’ve seen it will share in the bizarre, exaggerated, and weirdly dark atmosphere that all of the other Oddworld games have.
I mean, its Unity Cinematic trailer was just two workers with incredibly relatable facial expressions freaking out during an attack on their train.
Oddworld: Soulstorm has no set release date for 2020 but it’s expected to be out later this year.
