Rayman Pirate-Community

The Pirate-Community would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year! Of course, this also means that it's time for a new round of the Favourite Rayman Games Survey!

You can find last year's results here, 2018's results here, and 2017's results here.

Pirate-Community wishes you a Merry Christmas! We hope you all got socks, so you won't have to go reinvent the tube sock, and will have more time to enjoy your day.

RayTunes, our Rayman music archive, has just received a big content update!

This one includes the long-awaited Rayman Mini soundtrack, Rayman Raving Rabbids 2, and a very rare official soundtrack for Tonic Trouble.

On top of that, the Rayman 1 and Rayman Adventures soundtracks have also received additional tracks.

Enjoy!

Ubisoft have released an announcement trailer for Rayman Mini.

Rayman Mini will have a similar gameplay style to the previous UbiArt mobile games, and it will feature 48 levels, including boss fights. Rayman, Globox and Barbara will be playable characters with unlockable outfits. Teensies will not be playable, and the antagonist seems to be the Flaming Teensy, who is seen shrinking Rayman near the beginning of the announcement trailer.

Rayman Mini is scheduled for release on September 23rd, 2019.

A new game called Rayman Mini has been announced as a launch title for the upcoming Apple Arcade.

In this game, Rayman is reduced to size of an ant. Players are tasked with clearing levels as quickly as possible by jumping off insects and plants.

Rayman Mini will be available on September 19th, 2019.

Today marks the sixteenth birthday of Pirate-Community. It is an impressive figure for what started as a small fan community, and this was only made possible thanks to the loyalty of its members and the dedication of its staff during all these years.

Yet there are many more birthdays to come! Despite the complete lack of Rayman news, the community is still strong, and while it may not see as much activity as it used to, it's still the one and only place for Rayman fans to go. In fact, with only 39,217 messages posted during the last twelve months, this is the quiestest year in the history of the forum, which now totals 1,319,591 posts.

RayWiki, however, has made good progress, with a Russian version being created, the first language addition since 2015. With 5,304 articles in 8 languages, it is the world reference when it comes to Rayman, and while this figure gives us an increase of 138 articles from last year, the real figure is actually between 300 and 400 due to an error, now fixed, in the way statistics were previously calculated.

Meanwhile, RayTunes still sees a lot of visits from music enthusiasts all around the world, and is so complete that it is now difficult to think of new additions to it!

Overall, things have been calm, but the community is still here, ready to boom shall Ubisoft decide one day to revive the Rayman series. In the meantime, we will keep working hard on the websites you love, and make sure that their incredible content is always there for you.

Long live Rayman, long live Pirate-Community!

The 2019 Edition of the Favourite Rayman Game Survey is now up! Whether you participated in the previous edition or you're a new member, we hope you'll share your thoughts on our beloved series.

The results from 2018 can be found here, while those from 2017 can be found here.

Info has recently come to light about a cancelled game, derived from a trailer which was intended for release back in 2000. There's a possibility that it may have been the original concept of Rayman 2000, although that's currently unconfirmed.

The Pirate-Community wishes you all a Merry Christmas!
Unfortunately it looks like Santa won't be giving us Rayman's "fourth adventure" this year, but let's remain hopeful that it'll happen some day!

Rayman is now confirmed as a primary spirit in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. While he isn't exactly a fighter like we wanted, his inclusion in the game is a step in the right direction. There's always a possibility that he could one day be added as a fighter via DLC.
