It was the first game in the planned five-part Oddworld series, which includes the direct sequels Abe's Exoddus (1998), Munch's Oddysee (2001) and Stranger's Wrath (2005). By December 2012, the game sold 3.5 million copies worldwide, thus making it one of the best-selling PlayStation video games of all time. Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee was widely acclaimed for having innovative gameplay, good art direction and engaging cutscenes however, its difficult learning curve and system of only saving at checkpoints received criticism. The player assumes the role of Abe as he attempts a perilous quest to emancipate his downtrodden people. When he discovers that he and his fellow Mudokons are to be slaughtered to make a new product, Abe decides to escape and liberate as many enslaved Mudokons as he can. The game centers on the eponymous Abe, a meek Mudokon slave at the RuptureFarms meat processing factory. It was then later released as a PS5 emulation in 2022 in Asia, and then later parts of the world. Emulated versions for the PlayStation 3 via PlayStation Network were released in 2009, 2010, and 2013.
