Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD has been complete for some time, and now it's received its first review, a glowing 9/10 from Eurogamer:
On its initial release, this wonderful piece of work was all but ditched at retail by a publisher that didn't seem to understand what it was dealing with. Now Stranger's Wrath has finally received the lavish treatment it deserves, and the gaming world has a chance to reclaim one of its brightest treasures.
While a release date has still not been announced (it should be out 'very soon'), the review does mention the price it'll be going for, which is £9.99/€11.99/$14.99.
A Trophy list was also unveiled some time ago, which includes 37 Trophies (including a platinum one):

I wonder if one of the hidden Trophies is for capturing every bounty alive. That'd be a cool challenge because I remember Packrat Palooka being one of the hardest 'bosses' to keep alive.
They've also made a dynamic theme which has been available on the US PSN since last week and will be up in Europe today. It's $2.99/£1.59/€1.99 and looks like this:
Finally, if you are so inclined, you can now even pre-order T-shirts inspired by the game.
