Oddworld's Stranger: First Ever Screens!
First screenshot from the brand new Oddworld Inhabitants game to be published by EA.
Here's the first ever in-game screenshot from Stranger, the fourth title in the epic Oddworld saga from the warped minds at Oddworld Inhabitants - a sequel of potentially massive proportions to be published by EA Games in 2005.
Late last month, the first official details, and the first piece of artwork emerged, following a number of online reports breaking first information about the game. The character artwork that was revealed looked typically imaginative as you would expect from Oddworld, but the universe in Stranger instantly boasted a murkier, more mature and realistic tone.
Today, we can show you the first in-game screenshot, along with some rendered story screens as well.
Stranger is said to offer "a unique action gaming experience". Oddworld has taken a combination of traditional genres and added their own unique twists to deliver a refreshingly new interactive experience. Players step into the role of the Stranger, a western-style bounty hunter, who chases outlaws throughout the enthralling new frontier of the Oddworld universe. Players will be "moved" by the complex and inspiring story as the Stranger comes to grips with his true nature in the hunt for the ultimate bounty.
Stay tuned for a lot more on this one.
