Chris Pereira: ''Rayman Legends was, for myself and many others, a major reason to pick up a Wii U early on. Although it was known more than a month in advance of the system's launch that Legends would be coming in the first quarter of 2013, rather than in November as originally planned, it had been a game touted as a Wii U exclusive for some time. It seemed inevitable that it would eventually come to other platforms, but it would still be something that could only be had on Wii U for a period of time, and it would only be on Wii U that you could take advantage of the GamePad-specific features.
With the beginning of 2013 being so barren for Wii U releases that Nintendo president Satoru Iwata recently apologized for the drought, Legends would have been an even more welcome sight on store shelves. Much to the chagrin of Wii U owners everywhere, Ubisoft yesterday announced the game would not be coming out on February 26, as it was said to be even in recent weeks, but would instead be coming in September -- alongside Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions.''
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
"Rayman Legends Going Multiplatform Lets Down Wii U Owners"
ermmm no, the reason the Wii-U fans feel let down is we were promised this on 1st of March, just 2 weeks away from release and bam, Ubisoft goes and snatches it away from us to delay it another 6 months. To add insult to injury, the game went gold a while back and is ready to sell. So why hold it back from us who were eagerly awaiting this?
I don't care about multi platform, i am angry about waiting another six months, bayonetta 2, wind waker, and the monolith game are getting my money for the fall, sorry ray man.
This should have been a multiplat from the start.
Rayman origins was on all platforms, and you alienating your own customers.
