Stranger’s Wrath HD not coming for XBLA

Developer Oddworld Inhabitants is not bringing Stranger's Wrath HD to XBLA after all.

A community representative on the game's website told a commenter, "The boat has really passed on that one. We're winding up development on Stranger's Wrath HD and Munch's Oddysee HD. Blame Microsoft for not letting us publish on Xbox 360."

Back in January, co-developer Just Add Water spoke of the company's disinterest, tweeting, "They (Microsoft) turned us down again 🙁 time to get the big guns out!"

The developers are planning a new patch for Stranger's Wrath HD on June 27 that introduces the following features:

• 3DTV support
• PlayStation Move support
• Video recording and uploading
• Brightness & Gamma controls
• Audio fixes
• Increased crosshair visibility
• Fixed quicksaves and autosaves so you can load your last autosave and quicksave at any time
• Extra subtitles in English, French, Italian, German and Spanish
• Performance Improvements
