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]].
