This is an attempt to assemble a complete list of [[Oni]]'s physical releases, a process made difficult by the fact that there were some questionably-official distributions of the game outside of the United States (typically these releases did not translate the game but only some of the packaging, leaving the game itself in English). Also, it's hard to tell which regions received Mac and Windows releases and which only received Windows releases. Thus, this page is a perpetual work in progress.

So far we have 32 releases documented below. We do not attempt to list game bundles which included Oni; these bundles likely did not contain modified versions of Oni but merely whatever version was already distributed in that region. If a distributor is not clearly named on the package, the name of the publisher is used in the Distributor column. Note that a localization version (documented at [[OBD:Versions]]) is different from a release. A single localization of Oni, e.g. the Italian version, might have been distributed in several releases.

Note that a localization ''version'' (documented at [[OBD:Versions]]) is different from a ''release''. A single localization of Oni, e.g. the Italian version, might have been distributed in several releases.


P.S.: A fun fact about the official localized releases is that the localizers often received more than just the set of files intended for the final game and included everything unknowingly, which is documented [[European Mac releases|HERE]].
