Then came the years of darkness.

Even though I had gotten [[Rayman Legends#Nintendo Switch (Rayman Legends Definitive Edition)|Rayman Legends Definitive Edition]] about five years after its release, I still felt that [[Rayman]] had a bright future ahead of him.

Unfortunately, I was wrong.

Very wrong.

For years, the only thing we'd hear from [[Rayman (series)|the franchise]] was a cameo, a new mobile game [[Rayman Adventures|here]] or [[Rayman Mini|there]], but no real news. [[Rayman]] felt dead, and it didn't seem like he'd be coming back anytime soon.

But then, [[Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope|IT]] happened.

A teaser during Ubisoft Forward 2022 had revealed that after years of absence, [[Rayman]] would return in a new DLC for [[Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope]] (which, along with [[Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle]], is the only [[Rabbids (series)|Rabbids]] game I have on the Switch right now). I was overjoyed, as I know the rest of the community was. The following year's Ubisoft Forward game us some more footage of the DLC, and of [[Rayman]]'s new design. In-game, it was... interesting, to say the least. As of writing this (July 13, 2023), the DLC still hasn't released yet, but my anticipation is through the roof. I cannot wait to play this, and hopefully, this is just the beginning of [[Rayman]]'s revival.
