It's just a high def remake, so all of the gameplay will remain the same, it'll just look a whole lot prettier. And it looked pretty damn pretty to begin with.
It's also not just coming out on PS4. It's getting PC, Linux, Mac and Wii U release. But not XBox coz Microsoft doesn't deign to deal with those filthy indis. Or something.
Love the Oddworld stuff, can't say from the preview that i'm blown away by the graphics though. Shame they aren't making another chapter and just revisiting an old one. Their so creative, it surprises me.
The dev studio is called Just Add Water - they're in the UK. They've been working with what remains of Oddworld Inhabitants for a few years now doing HD remakes of the older games.
I'm pretty sure they've got at least one Polycounter there.
If i recall correctly from the initial announcement of New'n'Tasty, though, this isn't a true 1:1 remake. They want to add and change a few things so that it stands alone as a new game - which is why they named it New n' Tasty, not abes oddysee HD.
