The PlayStation 3 remake of the classic Xbox platformer set in the bizarre setting of Oddworld, Oddworld: Munch’s Oddysee, will be hitting PlayStation Network in the second quarter of 2012, according to the developer Just Add Water in a pair of tweets.
The developer’s first tweet announced, ”Thought we’d retweet this… Coming Q2 2012, for PS3/Vita and others ;)”, along with the official logo for the HD version of the game, as seen in the image below.
They then tweeted an image showing off the difference between the original Xbox interpretation of the main character with an updated PlayStation 3 version of him.
Oddworld: Munch’s Oddysee was a launch title for the original Xbox, released on 14th November, 2001. It received critical raves but underwhelmed in terms of sales numbers. Another original Xbox Oddworld game, Oddworld: Strangers Wrath, was released as an HD remake on PSN in late December 2012; the game earned a rave review from Strategy Informer.
