Strange and, especially, multistrange baryon and anti-baryon production is expected to be a useful probe in the search for Quark-Gluon Plasma formation. A review of WA85 results on strange and multistrange particle production in SW and pW interactions at 200 GeV/c per nucleons is presented. In particular, {ital m}{sub {ital T}} distributions and relative ratios are presented for {Xi}{sup {minus}}s, {bar {Xi}}{sup {minus}}s, {Lambda}s, {bar {Lambda}}s, and {ital K}{sup 0}s. {copyright} 1995 {ital American} {ital Institute} {ital of} {ital Physics}.
