About
Oddworld Inhabitants Inc. is the creator and developer of the Oddworld series, debuting with the acclaimed platformer Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee in 1997. The studio is known for its detailed world-building, environmental themes, and genre-blending titles like the action-adventure game Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath.
Founded by Sherry McKenna and Lorne Lanning, the studio's early era is marked by various regional releases and media partnerships. The company's foundational universe expanded through specialized releases, including the Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee [Prima] (1997) strategy guide companion and the Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee [Best Of Infogrames] (1997) budget re-release, which helped cement the debut game's commercial legacy.
Oddworld Inhabitants also shares associations with distinct mid-1990s and mid-2000s titles. This includes the psychological horror game D (1996) and its North American D [Long Box] (1996) edition, alongside the portable release X [UMD] (2005). The studio's later catalog saw renewed preservation and distribution efforts, notably marked by the high-definition remaster of Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath (2011) and its physical Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath [Collector's Edition] (2011). These releases reflect the company's transition from traditional cinematic platformers to diverse gameplay styles and modern digital distribution platforms.
