Developer Oddworld Inhabitants was hard at work at releasing a HD remake of the original Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee. Now, the team has decided to completely reboot the game.

"We decided to reboot it, not just an HD update to the original PS1 title, this is a NEW game. It will be getting it's first public showing LATER this year, with a release date of NEXT summer (2013)," the developer said through Facebook.

The team later clarified, "It is a remake of the original PS1 title, however we have started it from scratch using the original as a blueprint... Ok?"

Noice. Hopefully they do as good of a job as Ubisoft did with Rayman Origin.

Yeah, I loved the Abe games much better than the later ones too, so it's good to be going back to him, though I'm undecided wether I want it 3D or not

This could be amazing, I downloaded the Stranger game they made on the Playstation 3 but I've yet to actually play it.
