Fangus himself is “a shepherd who is forced to become a pit fighter by his country’s invaders. The game follows his struggle to understand and repel these invaders, while battling the onset of a rabies-like disease.” The game would have been “a balanced mixture of third-person with first-person, exactly as Stranger had done, but a hundred times more intense” – [More]

Early concepts for the upcoming chapter of Oddworld, the Brutal Ballad of Fangus Klot. 

I’m still excited, but seeing some of these concepts makes me really nervous that the game is taking a very bland, stereotypical post-apocalyptic FPS route. The quirky essence that defines Oddworld feels a bit secondary in these concepts. But hey it’s early. Fangus looks really cool, if nothing else.
