Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee is a 2001 platform video game developed by Oddworld Inhabitants and originally published by Microsoft Game Studios for the Xbox where it was released as a launch title. It is the third installment in the Oddworld series and the first to not be released initially on a PlayStation console.
Originally announced as a title in development for PlayStation 2, it was instead released exclusively as one of the launch titles for Xbox. While an "Oddboxx" containing the first four Oddworld games was originally intended for a holiday season 2009 release on Steam, the fourth game in the series was not released until December 20, 2010, on Steam, over two years after the first three.
The game received generally positive critical reviews around the time of its release, though retrospective and reviews of the game's ports have been more mixed to negative.
