Following a recent leak<\/a>, Ubisoft made it official that it\u2019s developing Rayman Legends Retold. The game is heading to Nintendo Switch 2 on October 1, 2026.<\/p>\n

Rayman Legends Retold is a remake of the 2013 game. Ubisoft has overhauled the visuals, now in 2.5D \/ 3D. The team is also adding in new content such as a new villain, a new story, a sixth realm, and more.<\/p>\n

Rayman Legends was one of the bigger titles on Wii U back in the day. It was originally supposed to be an exclusive for that console in 2012, but Ubisoft pushed it back to the following year to make it multiplatform.<\/p>\n

We later saw Rayman Legends Definitive Edition on Nintendo Switch in 2017. This included additions for Kung Foot with a couple of new modes, the ability to play in multiplayer with Joy-Con or wirelessly, and more.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s some information about the remake:<\/p>\n

Led by Ubisoft Montpellier and Ubisoft Milan, Rayman Legends Retold builds on the charm of the original 2013 game, now brought to life with stunning 3D visuals, a brand-new story and fully voiced cinematics. Players can join Rayman, Globox, Barbara, Grand Minimus, and Murphy on a new adventure to restore peace to the Glade of Dreams, threatened by a shadowy villain spreading chaos across the realms. Playable solo or with up to four players in couch co-op, players can experience iconic fast-paced platforming as they leap, glide, and punch their way through a never-before-seen sixth realm, epic boss battles and worlds filled with hidden Teensies to rescue.<\/p>\n

With new and improved gameplay, players can dive into a rich selection of returning levels, take flight on thrilling dragon rides, test their skills in the Cave of Trials, and jam through four all-new musical stages. They will also be able to explore a reimagined Glade of Dreams, now more immersive than ever, featuring new character encounters and surprises around every corner. In addition, Kung Foot returns with improved controls, power-ups, and customizable rules, delivering hours of frenzied competition.<\/p>\n

Throughout their journey, players can enjoy an expanded soundtrack that blends fan-favorite original themes with new compositions from acclaimed composers Christophe H\u00e9ral and Grant Kirkhope.<\/p>\n

Brand producer Lo\u00efc Gounon said today: \u201cRayman Legends Retold is our way of revisiting what makes Rayman so special, and re\u2011telling that experience for a new generation of players. We wanted to preserve everything fans love, and Legends gave us the perfect foundation to expand Rayman\u2019s lore, its world logic, and how everything connects together.\u201d<\/p>\n
