+ | ===Version differences=== | ||
+ | {{ii}} '''Another World''' / '''Out of This World''' was initially released in November 1991 for the Commodore Amiga and the Atari ST 16-bit home computers. The game was ported to DOS and the Classic Mac OS not long after. These ports feature expanded new areas and higher difficulty. The DOS version runs in 320x200 resolution in 16-color mode. The Mac OS version runs in 640x200 in 16 colors.<ref name="versions">[http://www.anotherworld.fr/anotherworld_uk/page_versions.htm Official website - Versions]</ref> | ||
+ | {{ii}} The game was ported to Windows 3.1 in 1994 by 1C: Maddox Games. This release is essentially the same as the DOS port. | ||
+ | {{ii}} The game was ported to Windows XP in 2006 through joint efforts of Eric Chahi, DotEmu, Mana Games and Magic Productions. This version is referred to as '''Another World: Collector's Edition'''. It features enhanced higher resolution graphics in 256 colors and higher quality sound. It is possible to switch between the original and remastered modes. In addition, the difficulty has been scaled down, with twice as many checkpoints.<ref name="versions"/> | ||
+ | {{ii}} '''Another World: 15th Anniversary Edition''', released in 2007, is essentially the same as the '''Collector's Edition'''. The only difference is the included bonus material: an audio CD with the game's soundtrack, two developer diaries, a "Making of" video and also a postcard signed by Eric Chahi (in select countries).<ref name="news"/> | ||
+ | {{ii}} '''Another World: 20th Anniversary Edition''', released in 2013, has only cosmetic improvements over the previous two editions. The visuals and the audio have been slightly tweaked. The difficulty mode can now be adjusted on the fly by selecting one of three levels. It includes the same extras as the '''15th Anniversary Edition'''. | ||

Version differences
- Another World / Out of This World was initially released in November 1991 for the Commodore Amiga and the Atari ST 16-bit home computers. The game was ported to DOS and the Classic Mac OS not long after. These ports feature expanded new areas and higher difficulty. The DOS version runs in 320x200 resolution in 16-color mode. The Mac OS version runs in 640x200 in 16 colors.[4]
- The game was ported to Windows 3.1 in 1994 by 1C: Maddox Games. This release is essentially the same as the DOS port.
- The game was ported to Windows XP in 2006 through joint efforts of Eric Chahi, DotEmu, Mana Games and Magic Productions. This version is referred to as Another World: Collector's Edition. It features enhanced higher resolution graphics in 256 colors and higher quality sound. It is possible to switch between the original and remastered modes. In addition, the difficulty has been scaled down, with twice as many checkpoints.[4]
- Another World: 15th Anniversary Edition, released in 2007, is essentially the same as the Collector's Edition. The only difference is the included bonus material: an audio CD with the game's soundtrack, two developer diaries, a "Making of" video and also a postcard signed by Eric Chahi (in select countries).[1]
- Another World: 20th Anniversary Edition, released in 2013, has only cosmetic improvements over the previous two editions. The visuals and the audio have been slightly tweaked. The difficulty mode can now be adjusted on the fly by selecting one of three levels. It includes the same extras as the 15th Anniversary Edition.
