New screenshots of the upcoming New ‘n’ Tasty have been published online. Some screens were spotted on PlayStation’s New ‘n’ Tasty PS4 minisite yesterday, and today GameInformer published some exclusive screenshots over on their site.
The screenshots cover a variety of scenes, including in-game shots from RuptureFarms and the Scrabanian and Paramonian Temples, and stills from cutscenes – some of which will be familiar to those who played the original Oddysee, and some which appear brand new. We also get our first look at Molluck, Bigface, and the Monsaic Lines.

New ‘n’ Tasty may be a digital-only release, but it still needs boxart – and that’s exactly what Oddworld Inhabitants revealed over on their website.
New ‘n’ Tasty boxart
The boxart, painted by Alex Konstad (with additions by longtime Oddworld artist Raymond Swanland) gives us a glimpse at an all-new RuptureFarms, and will be featured on digital storefronts where the game is sold. It will also be appearing on the PlayStation Store’s “Coming Soon” section.
