Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix is an adult animated streaming television series produced by Ubisoft Film & Television and animated by Bobbypills. Developed by Adi Shenkar and loosely adapted from Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, Captain Laserhawk premiered on Netflix on October 19, 2023.

Notably, the series incorporates characters and elements from various Ubisoft franchises, including Rayman, Beyond Good and Evil, Rainbow Six, Assassin's Creed and Watch Dogs.

Rayman, voiced by David Menkin, is one of the main characters. An alien from the parallel world of Dimension X, he is the public face of Eden, the totalitarian megacorporation which has replaced the United States of America. As such, he is the presenter of various shows, such as The Eden Late Show and The Eden Report, and the face of the Rayman Kids, a youth organisation which indoctrinates children and encourages them to report suspicious actions to the regime.

Announcement

Ubisoft initially introduced the show in October 2019, naming it Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Vibe, under the direction of Adi Shankar, known for his work on the Castlevania TV series. During Netflix's "Geeked Week" virtual event in June 2021, Shankar announced his role as the producer for the series, which draws inspiration from Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon and was therefore renamed Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix. Shankar led the project, collaborating with the Paris-based animation studio Bobbypills for production. Creative direction was overseen by Balak, with Mehdi Leffad as the director. Producers from Ubisoft Film & Television included Gérard Guillemot, Hélène Juguet, and Hugo Revon.

On September 27, 2023, a trailer^[1] was published, showing Rayman as a newscaster for the totalitarian regime, and his face on many signs in the background. A Globox costume was also shown.
