Works in popular culture occasionally make reference to the Rayman series.
Examples
Television
- The animated sketch comedy television series Mad featured an episode entitled "Adventures of TaunTaun / Everyone Loves Rayman". The latter segment is a combined parody of the Rayman series and the American sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond.
- The animated comedy The Simpsons had an episode called "The Food Wife". It featured a game called "Q-Bert Origins".
Video games
- Tonic Trouble is a Ubisoft game on which Rayman creator Michel Ancel worked. It was developed prior to Rayman 2: The Great Escape, largely in order to test the engine planned for use in that game. All characters in Tonic Trouble are limbless, like Rayman's species. Rayman himself appears briefly during the end credits of the PC version of the game.
- Beyond Good and Evil, another Ubisoft game developed by Michel Ancel, contains a hidden reference to the Rayman games: a distinctive pink mosquito can be found on the nose of a dead cow in the factory level.
- In another Ubisoft game, Prince of Persia: Warrior Within, the player can find Rayman's telescopic fist, and use it as a weapon.
- Asterix & Obelix XXL 2: Mission Las Vegum features enemies based on sever popular video game characters, including Mario, Sonic, Pac-Man and Rayman. A painting that can be seen on a wall shows one of the Rayman enemies pulling a rabbit out of a hat, despite the fact that the game was released a year before Rayman Raving Rabbids.
