You see, Stranger not only has his fists (and a rock hard skull), but when switching into first-person view he also has a very special crossbow that can fire literal live ammo at his foes to capture them or, well, not. Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath PS5 ReviewĪn Aging, Yet Uncanny Gunfighter That Still Has Plenty Of Charm And A Lot To SayĮffectively the second time that Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath has been remastered and re-released (the last time was on PS3, nearly ten years ago in 2011), Oddworld Stranger’s Wrath on PS4 and PS5 is a hybrid third-person and first-person action adventure that casts players as the titular Stranger, an hard-bitten bounty hunter who must wander the frontier lands of Western Mudos in search of dastardly scoundrels to bring in for a whole heap of cold, hard Moolah to fix an ongoing ‘health’ problem. With Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath however, developer Oddworld Inhabitants arguably made something so radically different from the series base design DNA that it demands investigation – a fact that remains as true in 2022 as it did back in 2005 during its original release. For the longest time I’ve always admired the versatility of the Oddworld franchise to delve into genres that exist beyond those which played a role in its inception – in much the same way that Steamworld games have managed to pull off a similar feat.
