The platforming genre has been around for a long time, and it once was the strongest genre with the power to sell systems. There is an undeniable downfall in the genre of gaming as many popular 2D titles have found problems in switching to a 3D style. You can think of any Sonic game as evidence of that. That’s not to say all have failed, Mario is still extremely popular in 3D elements. Some games have proven that updating to 3D isn’t necessary, and staying in 2D could actually be the wisest choice. Rayman has proven this perfectly with their successful game Rayman Origins, and now continuing their success with one of the greatest platforming games to date: Rayman Legends.
Ubisoft barely have a leg to stand on lately, so do they need to crack open the vaults and return platforming royalty to glory for some goodwill?
We need Rayman 4, they could make a great platformer game if they wanted. With the open hub levels and the like.
Better than relying on Rabbids and Assassins Creed all the time
Yes..but I am sure it won't be the Rayman game fans want. Not from the company that is Ubisoft today.
Ancel is retired from games. His hoodlum/rabbid team are doing their own thing. It would not be the same if Ubisoft did.
Experience points, skill trees to fill up, level gating, endless menial tasks and side quests, constantly scrounging for resources. Always having to upgrade your gear. A.KA. "The Ubisoft effect".
No thanks, don't ruin Rayman's legacy.
A decade on from Rayman Legends' release, it remains a near perfect platformer, so what happened to Rayman? Will we ever see another sequel?
Rayman Legends made its debut 10 years ago today, and has been launched on nearly every gaming platform since.
Too bad Ubisoft only cares about live service games now. Maybe one day they'll make a new Rayman game.
Great games.. would be cool to get qn Origins remaster at least..I know that many of the levels are in Legends, but still
