ODDWORLD: ABE’S EXODDUS

Format: PlayStation/ PC
SRP: £TBC
Release: 20th November

Bones, brew and Abe too!

Abe’s Exoddus is everything “Abe’s Oddysee” was and a whole lot more: more levels, more gameplay, more characters, more interaction, more movies... and way more cool stuff - with all the personality, humour and quirkiness that’s made Abe’s Oddysee the success it is. 

Now the Inhabitants are more emotional and interactive amongst themselves - they react emotionally, and change mood based upon things happening to other characters within the game. The Mudokons now have personalities – and at the worst possible time for Abe - as they fight, fart and laugh amongst themselves. 

GameSpeak is also taken to new levels. Mudokons aren’t just saying “okay” anymore. They’ve got stuff on their minds and Abe’s gonna have to talk them into helping him one way or the other. Fortunately Abe’s got some new GameSpeak words of his own, new possession powers inherited at the end of the first game (wait till you possess a Glukkon!) and all-new environments and levels to kill himself in.  In Abe’s Exoddus the little green dude even uses his own farts as a deadly weapon! 

Abe’s Exoddus picks up where Abe left off!  After Abe falls on his head in the middle of his victory celebration, three ghostly Mudokon Spirits appear to Abe in a vision, begging him to come to Necrum, the ancient Mudokok city of the dead.  It seems the Glukkons are digging up the bones of the Mudokon dead, so now they can’t rest - they’ve become Mudombies!  

When Abe travels to Necrum, he finds that his quest is just beginning.  The Glukkons are using the bones they’ve minced in Necrum as the main ingredient in the ultra-addictive soft drink known as SoulStorm brew.  And it’s all Abe’s fault - when he destroyed Rupture Farms, the supply of bones to SoulStorm Brewery dried up.  So the Glukkons did what any right-thinking businessman would do: they found another supplier who would match their price.  

Now, Abe has to infiltrate SoulStorm Brewery, rescue the Mudokons who are enslaved there and destroy the Brewery once and for all.  And if you thought the Mudokons in Rupture Farms had it bad, wait ’till you get a load of these poor saps.  They can’t even cry in peace.  See, the secret ingredient for SoulStorm Brew just happens to be Mudokon tears.  How else do you think the Glukkons are able to get that “deep rich flavah, that’s rich without bein’ bittah?”

Featuring the most astoundingly atmospheric and beautifully designed levels ever seen in a game - with whole new worlds for Abe to explore.  Abe is back!  This time he’s bringing something NEW & TASTY with even more rich FLAVOUR than before!
