What is Oddworld 4 all about?
Oddworld 4 is the mysterious latest development at Oddworld Inhabitants. The main character is the Steef, a bounty hunter, who appears to be an affiliate of the Vykkers and an enemy of a poacher, who may or may not be called Grub. The game itself has a strong Western look to it, while the gameplay will be much more exploration and shooting than the timing and puzzle solving of previous games. The Steef is not an anti-hero like Abe or Munch. Most of what we know about Oddworld 4 comes from the recent episode of ‘On The Inside’ called X-Factor – Inside Microsoft’s Xbox, which can be downloaded from here (thanks to Oddipus of the Oddworld Forums for finding this). For more information, theories and opinions of the new game, read this topic from the Oddworld Forums. Bear in mind, though, that the footage from the video was shot in September of last year, and OWI refuse to comment on the direction they have taken since then.
