'Oddworld: New 'n' Tasty' (ALL) Comes to Nintendo Switch - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Aug. 11, 2020 @ 8:36 a.m. PDT

Players must help Abe on his epic journey as he tries to escape his fate and save fellow Mudokons at RuptureFarms, and maybe even become something far greater than he imagined, a catalyst for change in the face of an oppressive world.

Selected by the fickle finger of fate, Abe, floor-waxer first class for RuptureFarms, was catapulted into a life of adventure when he overheard plans by his boss, Molluck the Glukkon, to turn Abe and his fellow Mudokons into Tasty Treats as part of a last-ditch effort to rescue Molluck's failing meat-packing empire.

During his escape from RuptureFarms, Abe received a vision from the mysterious Big Face, showing Abe that he must not only rescue his fellow Mudokons, but also protect all of Oddworld's creatures from the predatory Magog Cartel.

After completing arduous Temple trials, and journeying across a wasteland with his friend Elum, Abe was granted the awesome power of the Shrykull. Returning to RuptureFarms, Abe destroyed the foul slaughterhouse, rescued his buddies, and brought down some righteous lightning on top of Molluck's pointy head.


Originally released in 1997, Oddworld Inhabitants’ recipe for the action puzzle platformer Oddworld: New ‘n’ Tasty will soon be available in Nintendo Switch flavor.

Coming to retail and Nintendo eShop in October, and made from scratch, New ‘n’ Tasty serves up the freshest game ingredients such as organically grown and breathtakingly enhanced visuals and audio, grass-fed gameplay that is deeper and filled with piping hot delicious action, and a scrumptious story that if fans don’t eat up, the Glukkons may.

The physical standard and limited editions of New ‘n’ Tasty are available for pre-order beginning today. The action begins with our hero Abe serving as a simple floor-waxer at RuptureFarms before stumbling into a meeting and overhearing his boss, Molluck the Glukkon, discuss future plans to turn Abe and his fellow Mudokons into Tasty Treats as a final effort to rescue Molluck's failing meatpacking empire.

Will Abe change his fate, as well as the fate of thousands of fellow Mudokons? Will you be able to stomach Abe’s first step on his epic journey?

Or will Abe go back on the menu!

Find out this October, available on Nintendo Switch.
