AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Ubisoft announced Rayman Legends Retold during the recent PlayStation State of Play, bringing the acclaimed 2013 platformer to current gen hardware with updated visuals, new story content, a new realm, and an expanded soundtrack ahead of its October 1 release.
Ubisoft is finally giving platformer fans a major win. During the recent PlayStation State of Play, the publisher officially revealed Rayman Legends Retold, a comprehensive modern update of what many consider the absolute peak of the franchise. After years of the limbless hero taking a backseat to his chaotic Rabbids spin-off counterparts, Rayman is making a serious splash this year following February's 30th Anniversary Edition release. This upcoming project aims to bring the beloved 2013 classic forward with current generation visual upgrades and performance enhancements.
Beyond a fresh coat of paint, this new release is bringing genuine additions to the table for returning players and newcomers alike. According to details shared by Game Rant, Rayman Legends Retold features brand new story twists, an entirely new realm to explore, and an expanded soundtrack. The core package retains the beloved co-op mechanics for up to four players, along with the massive level roster from the original game and remastered stages pulled from Rayman Origins.
For a community that has watched classic platforming franchises drift into dormancy, seeing Ubisoft invest back into traditional single player and co-op experiences is a welcome shift. The industry has spent years chasing live service trends and seasonal battle passes, so stepping back into a polished, level based adventure feels refreshing. Players can dive into the updated classic when Rayman Legends Retold launches across all major platforms on October 1.
