Oddworld HD Getting Extremely Limited Print Run
There’s an online store called Limited Run Games that specializes in taking indie and digital titles from the Playstation Store and creating official, logo-branded physical versions of them. Their small budget means they can only produce the most miniscule of print runs, but they use this to their advantage by creating amiibo-esque holy grails for collectors. Most recently they published around 1980 (get it?) copies of a retro-inspired game called Saturday Morning RPG. I had heard about the release, but soon forgot about it. Looks like it’s too late now.
But it may not be too late for YOU, if you like Oddworld. A high-definition, remastered version of the original Abe’s Oddysee, entitled Oddworld: New ‘n Tasty, was released recently on the Playstation Store. Now thanks to a cooperation between Limited Run Games and Oddworld Inhabitants, this version of the game will get its own disc…for about a day before it sells out.
All the available downloadable content will be included on the disc. Pricing and an exact date of release have not been announced yet, but keep an eye on the Limited Run website for when they do. Once they blow through the initial print run of any game they sell, they will never sell that game again. EV-ERRRRR.
