An unannounced Rayman 30th Anniversary Edition has popped up on the Australian Classification Board.
The Australian government has rated it a ‘G’ – the equivalent to the UK’s ‘U’ – for its “very mild impact” violence. It’s reportedly coming to both the PS5 and Nintendo Switch, with Atari listed as both the developer and publisher.
Rumour has it Ubisoft is also working on a Rayman Legends remake, although it’s now unclear if those plans have been scuppered by Ubisoft’s “reset” in which it closed two studios and cancelled six projects, including its much-delayed Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake. The news wiped over a third off its share price.
On the 30th anniversary of the Rayman series, towards the end of last year, brand producer Loic Gounon spoke about the history of the series and provided a little teaser of what’s to come. In a video posted on the official Rayman X account, which had been dormant for years prior to the announcement, Gounon stated: “A very talented team at Ubisoft Montpellier and Ubisoft Milan are currently working on the future of Rayman. Don’t expect news from us too soon, but rest assured, Rayman is in good hands.”
To mark the 30th anniversary of Rayman, Gounon also announced Ubisoft will be sharing behind-the-scenes anecdotes, interviews, concept art, and more.
