In ''[[Rayman Origins]]'', lives were intended to make a return. Instead of statues, they appeared to be plush toys of [[Rayman]], resembling more the icon of the [[Wanna Kick Rayman]] series from ''[[Rayman 3]]''. Lives were only seen in [[Rayman Origins (early production)|a beta version of the game]], which also featured some other scrapped elements such as [[the Photographer]]. In the beta, [[Rayman]] could get a life just by touching special [[bubble]]s only found in secret rooms with [[Electoon]] [[cage]]s. These [[bubble]]s act as roulettes, scrolling between various other items such as [[Flying Punch]]es, [[Lum (UbiArt games)|Lums]], and [[heart]]s. With good timing, the players could gather a life, which, weirdly, makes a big [[heart]] with inverted colours appear for a short period.

During final development, the lives (along with the roulette [[bubble]]s) were removed from the final version of the game. The developers decided this to get rid of the "arcade era" and provide a new and more positive gaming experience, as the player could lose as many times as necessary to gain skill without having to worry about being ejected from the game.<ref>[http://raymanorigins.uk.ubi.com/blog/2011/11/03/10-ways-to-die ''Ten Ways to Die'' trailer]</ref> This may suggest that lives won't appear in future games of the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' series]].

In ''[[Rayman 2 Forever]]'', lives are replaced with [[Super Red Lum]]s, which serve the same purpose, and although they do not appear in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']] either, the [[White Lum]]s have a similar function.
