The Bubble Dreamer appears in ''[[Rayman Legends]]'' in a similar supporting role as he had in ''[[Rayman Origins]]''. The first cutscene features him discussing with [[Murfy]] of the current state of the [[Glade of Dreams]], noting the 100 year nap that [[Rayman]] and friends have fallen under, and the multiplication of the nightmares during this century-long snooze. To this end, he commands [[Murfy]] to awaken them, and set in motion the events experienced in the game. | The Bubble Dreamer appears in ''[[Rayman Legends]]'' in a similar supporting role as he had in ''[[Rayman Origins]]''.

From his home, the [[Tree of Tranquility]], Bubble Dreamer spends most of his time dreaming and contemplating the beauty of the world. However, despite his laid-back attitude, his occasional nightmares threaten the peacefulness of the Glade of Dreams. Creatures from his nightmares are the source of many disturbances and require [[Rayman]] and his friends to take action.|sign=Official description|source=''[[Rayman Legends Retold]]''}} | |||
Bubble Dreamer sports a new appearance and a slightly altered moniker in ''[[Rayman Legends Retold]]''. From this game onwards, the definite article "the" is dropped, meaning he is referred to simply as "Bubble Dreamer" instead of "the Bubble Dreamer". While his base design is similar to his appearances in the [[UbiArt Framework|UbiArt]] games, he now has a braided beard, glasses, and an eccentric, hipster-like appearance. He has a wise yet charming personality, almost like a mix of his ''[[Rayman 2]]'' and ''[[Rayman Origins]]'' depictions. | |||
