Rayman Legends (early production): Difference between revisions

== Leaks ==

''[[Rayman Legends]]'' was first leaked on April 23, 2012 in a marketing survey with screenshots from two early trailers. The following day, the trailers were uploaded to YouTube, but both were quickly taken down at the request of [[Ubisoft]]. On 26 April, 2012, [[Ubisoft]] registered the domain names 'RaymanLegends.com' and 'Rayman-Legends.com', confirming the name of the game.

On 27 April, 2012, the first full-length trailer for the game was leaked to the public. [[Ubisoft]] initially attempted to suppress the videos, but after a few hours they released an official statement, confirming that ''[[Rayman Legends]]'' was being developed by [[Michel Ancel]] and [[Ubisoft Montpellier]].

Early gameplay leaks shows that the game was originally more similar to ''[[Rayman Origins]]''.

One of the leaked trailers show an early Wii U feature where the player can put a figure, such as a [[Rabbid]] figure, on the Wii U GamePad to affect the game in various ways. It is not known in which way they affect the game. The [[Rabbid]]s as seen appearing in the game were later used in ''[[Rayman Adventures]]'' for its [[Event (Rayman Adventures)|events]].

According to the leaked trailers, ''[[Rayman Legends]]'' was originally going to feature several more online features. One of these seems to have been a feature in which players could send challenges to each other to earn rubis, a form a currency not used in the final game. One of the locations the challenges could have taken place in is the Ghost's Pit, which is apparently the original name for [[the Neverending Pit]].

During E3 2012, an official trailer was revealed showing what would later become the level [[Once upon a Time]]. There are several differences throughout the level, and the final area was later used in [[How to Shoot your Dragon]] instead. One of the biggest differences is the first challenges room which features a new type of minigame known as Catch 'em All, a reference to Pokemon. This challenge would have seen one player controlling [[Murfy]] on the touchpad and moving over [[creature]]s to the other players before the time runs out. Other differences include [[cage]]s containing two trapped [[Teensie]]s, different ways which [[Murfy]] could interact with the environment and unused music.
