I'm sure the game is going to fun and amazing, but it was a bad idea to push the date back.

It's going to be overshadowed by bigger titles. It's going up against games like:

Final Fantasy XIV
Lost Planet 3
Diablo III
Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix
GTAV

These are pretty big games being released within 2 or 3 weeks.

I bet GTAV already has the upper hand against all of these titles and it's the last game to be released out of this bunch.

It most likely would of stood a much better chance if it were released in February... They should of made it a timed exclusive for the Wii U, but added a bit more content to the 360 version due to MS's policies...

PopRocks3593932d ago

You forgot to mention Wonderful 101 and Zelda Wind Waker HD on Wii U. So it won't even sell well on the system it was originally meant for.

SpiralTear3932d ago

I doubt that. The people who own a Wii U already have been tracking this game since its announcement as an exclusive, so they are well in the know of how awesome this game can be (hell, the demo was incredible on its own).

If it does sell well, I think the Wii U version will be the one with the highest numbers, but yeah, pushing the date back will give the game competition that it wouldn't get if the date stood still.

Will There Ever Be A New Rayman Game?

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

Yeah agree id love a Rayman 2 style 3d platform game over another 2d platformer I know people loved legends but it never gelled with me same as Rayman 1 back in the day on PS it just felt like a average platformer with sonic and Mario offering something better on what was then last gen hardware

Terry_B56d ago

Yes..but I am sure it won't be the Rayman game fans want. Not from the company that is Ubisoft today.

mastershredder56d ago (Edited 56d ago )

Ancel is retired from games. His hoodlum/rabbid team are doing their own thing. It would not be the same if Ubisoft did.

Profchaos55d ago

Probably far more profitable to make low effort Rabbids games aimed at kids over a next Rayman

Chocoburger55d ago

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.

Profchaos55d ago

Sure there will be it'll launch right alongside the next splinter cell

Rayman Legends - 10 Years of Legendary Platforming

Rayman Legends made its debut 10 years ago today, and has been launched on nearly every gaming platform since.

HankHill238d ago

Too bad Ubisoft only cares about live service games now. Maybe one day they'll make a new Rayman game.

Venoxn4g237d ago

Great games.. would be cool to get qn Origins remaster at least..I know that many of the levels are in Legends, but still

Outlawzz237d ago

Loved this game but wish they would create a new Rayman 3d game.
