Before proper development of the 3D game began, a CGI short film using the concepts from the 2D game was created by the name of ''[[Rayman's training ~~(short)|Rayman's Training~~]]''. The short film stars Rayman battling a living punching bag~~, along with characters like the Hunter making an appearance~~. It premiered in February 1st, 1998 to the tradeshow/film festival Imagina 1998. After that, it has never been seen in its entirety since.

In various ''[[Rayman (series)|Rayman]]'' adverts from 1997 to 1998, there were several instances of "stock footage" of a CGI [[Rayman]], and the most complete instance of this would be the E3 1998 trailer to ''[[Rayman 2]]''. For two decades, no one had known where this footage had come from exactly; it was assumed that they were made for the trailer.

In early 2021, it was put together by a number of Twitter users that the pre-rendered scenes in the E3 1998 trailer were actually from ''[[Rayman's training ~~(short)|Rayman's Training~~]]''. ~~This came at~~ a ~~worrying revelation, however;~~ the ~~short has~~ no ~~copies known to be online, and is assumed~~ to ~~be lost media~~.
