The '''Xowar''', also known as the '''Xovar''', is a species of gigantic gorilla-like creature from ''[[Rayman 3]]''. In all its appearances it has a distinctive tusk protruding from the right side of its lower jaw.

Line 30:

*In [[Clearleaf Stadium|the arena]] of the [[Master Kaag]] battle in the [[Clearleaf Forest]], there is a 'Wanted' poster depicting the Xowar. It has been speculated that the [[Hoodlum]]s want him for his fur for their costumes or as an ally against [[Rayman]].

*In a secret room found just before the final [[Reflux]] fight in [[the Tower of the Leptys]]~~. In this secret room~~, generally known to players as the [[Xowar secret]], there are three room-sized (and unbreakable) [[cage]]s, each containing a different [[Rayman 3 (early production)|scrapped]] character. One cage holds a [[Glute]], one holds an in-game model of a [[Bonton]] similar to the one in the intro video (except the one in the [[cage]] is blue), and in the third cage is a Xowar running on a treadmill.

Three unused animations are still present in the game for the Xowar: one where he hits the ground with its front legs, another where it beats its chest, and one where it collapses to the ground, presumably after being defeated.<ref>YouTube, ''Rayman 3: Unused Xowar Animations'', https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HoiWy1yKIkM</ref>
