Behind this title lies the Japanese release of Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus, a distinctly Western world that found only a narrow audience in Japan. The local edition is therefore far scarcer than its American and European counterparts, which appeals to collectors who track cross-region pressings and against-the-grain localizations. Its desirability rests on how singular Oddworld looked on PlayStation, a series with instantly recognizable art.
Is Abe '99 still worth playing in 2026?
Abe '99 is the Japanese version of Oddworld - Abe's Exoddus, the direct sequel to Abe's Oddysee. The puzzle platformer keeps the unique Slig possession mechanic and adds Mudokon emotion management, in unforgettable absurd humour from Oddworld Inhabitants. Longer and richer than its predecessor, the title stays demanding with rare coherence. An absolute classic to bring out today.
