Rayman Pirate-Community

I'm hoping for "The Rayman Company" as a branch of some other company, similar to how "The Pokémon Company" is a branch of Nintendo. Unlikely though.

I wish they did this too. But I guess I shouldn't hold my breath.

If Rayman would be bought by a different compagny, it would have to be Wild Sheep Studio. I don't see another compagny that could fit more to Rayman's universe.

But it won't happen. Rayman is Ubisoft's mascot, they will never sell it.

If you count a character thrown on the backburner and virtually never represented a mascot.
To me he is more of an entity of Ubisoft then a mascot.
A mascot would be Sonic or Mario because of how explicitly they are advertised for both companies. Rayman (on Ubisofts part) is very implicitly represented.

Out of curiosity, what would you like to see for a new Rayman title?

I would like to see a drastically changed game from Rayman Origins/Legends style of gameplay. I think now with the addition of Adventures, having again similar game on consoles would be a waste and that it would not sell good, resulting more trouble for franchise. For Rayman, these two options are best for future:

- Official HD remastered remake of Rayman 1 with lots of new additions and maybe expanding story
- 3D Rayman game which supports up to 5 player online and offline co-op (5th player assisting others being Murfy). It should be open-world adventure and like no other Rayman game.

I would definitely like to see a remastered Rayman 1, even adding new levels to the game. Although Rayman Classic is probably the closest we're gonna get to a "remake" of Rayman 1.

The Rabbids have replaced Rayman as their mascot, just accept it.

A 3D open world game was planned after Rayman Legends... But it has been cancelled in 2013. You can read it in the book "L'Histoire de Rayman", as I talked about it on an other topic a while ago.

Like Rabbids are doing any better.

Surprised I haven't commented on this yet: I don't think Rayman will be at E3 2016, but it would be cool if so. TBH last time I actually got legitimately hyped for a Rayman game was Origins, so hopefully they can recreate that by doing something drastically different.

That sounds like a recipe for disaster. How about just a fully focused single player adventure with an open world?

I can't really imagine them having anything Rayman up their sleeve for E3 unless it's some big update for Adventures or hell even Legends.

Go in and expect nothing, and you can either get a pleasant surprise or just nothing which is better than dsiapointment at the least.

Definitely. This was the mindset I went in going in to Sony's last year and I was EXTREMELY excited and taken by surprised when Shenmue 3 and Final Fantasy VII remake got announced. Some people seem to have high expectations of Mr. Bandicoot for e3 2016 coming back, they'll very likely be in for disappointment.

Being a realist in these situations helps quite a lot to keep your emotions in check. Being optimistic is great and I consider myself to be one but sometimes you just have to weigh the odds. And just like Rayfist said, you can be in for a treat sometimes

Toot, toot all aboard of Snoresville. I think a 4 player (not 5) 3D Platformer would be a great idea.

Single-player or multiplayer is irrelevant if the gameplay itself doesn't fit, I wouldn't be fussed either ways, so long as a good title is what's shown.

I would love to see a new 3D platformer, I very well enjoyed Rayman 3, and Rayman 2 is another great game. Such great examples, in my opinion.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind single player, but if the devs want to implement multiplayer that suits well with the gameplay, that's fine with me. But it'd great to have the option. I love playing Origins and Legends with others.

I never did get to play Origins nor Legends with other people, though I do like the games still either way.
