Electronic Arts snags Oddworld
by Kit

Thursday, June 17 2004

Fallen series ressurected by EA for PS2 and Xbox consumption.

Electronic Arts has received the global publishing rights for Oddworld Inhabitants next videogame title.

The game itself is due out in 2005 for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox and will have players taking on the role of the Stranger, a “western-style bounty hunter, who chases outlaws throughout the enthralling new frontier of the Oddworld universe.”

“Oddworld Inhabitants represent the type of high quality developer with which we're seeking to partner moving forward," said Greg Richardson, GM of EA Partners.

The Oddworld series has sold almost five million titles to-date. The last title to be released in the series was Oddworld Munch’s Odysee, an Xbox-exclusive published by Microsoft Game Studios in 2001.
