Ubisoft Unveils Rayman Raving Rabbids
Today Ubisoft has announced plans to release the fourth instalment of the Rayman franchise, now officially titled Rayman Raving Rabbids, worldwide in Holiday 2006. Scheduled for current and next-generation video game consoles, Rayman Raving Rabbids also joins the line-up as an official launch title for NintendoÂ’s Wii, formerly known as NintendoÂ’s Revolution gaming system, and its innovative controller. Rayman Raving Rabbids is being developed by UbisoftÂ’s award-winning studio in Montpellier, France led by Michel Ancel, creator of the original Rayman game, the critically acclaimed Beyond Good & Evil and Peter JacksonÂ’s King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie.
Rayman Raving Rabbids marks the return of the iconic video-game hero, Rayman, in his funniest and zaniest adventure ever. When the world of Rayman is threatened by a devastating invasion of crazed, out-of-control bunnies Rayman must rise up against his furry foes to foil their wicked plans. Utilizing an array of amazing new abilities, and with the help of magical creatures, Rayman must break out all the moves to save his world from these delirious bunnies and their hare-raising antics.
“ItÂ’s a real pleasure for me to be back working on an all-new Rayman,” said Michel Ancel. “After wrapping up Peter JacksonÂ’s King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie, the team here in Montpellier sat down to talk about having some fun with Rayman and his universe. We are running into a bit of a problem, though, because our game has been invaded by thousands of raving mad and vicious bunnies, who have apparently been preparing this assault since the very first Rayman game. We are now sending an SOS to all motivated gamers to help us get rid of them as fast as possible!” It’s looking pretty cool.
