Oddworld 2.0 sounds more like their action plan: their business model and the reintroduction of Oddworld to the public realm, than a restructured Oddworld universe.
Besides, we already know the story will be different, due to the alterations made so that AO would be a self-contained game and not a game of a film. We already anticipate the difference between Game-canon and Film-canon.
