Well Abe had to rescue Mudokon spirits from Spirit Locks in Abe's Exoddus: http://oddworld.wikia.com/wiki/Ghost_Trap

Also the whole game starts because he's getting a vision of three Mudokon ghosts.

So spirits are definitely a running theme in Abe's Oddysee and could be in SoulStorm too.
That’s a really interesting point, perhaps our communicator is a Mudokon spirit then?

I checked the site again to see if there were any more clues, and I noticed that the “Introducing SoulStorm” paragraph at the top of the page now has some text bolded (reproduced below):
:
Witness Abe's horrifying conflict with a terrifying new machination.
A fresh narrative - a complete story retake inspired by our original tale.
A big visual and cinematic leap aiming to break new ground for Oddworld.
Intelligent new mechanics, twisted new devices enabling highly explosive deviousness.
A dark parable that tells an epic tale of a volatile society pushed to its limits.
“ed” is bolded twice, on the words “inspired” and “pushed”.

Not seeing any other changes right now, no new code either. This might have been added at the same time as the “listen to me” message and we just didn’t notice it.


EDIT: OK, weird, it’s gone now. Maybe my browser just screwed up, ignore this.
