Rayman Lives: Ubisoft Hires for New Triple-A Adventure

May 21, 2025 1:06 PM

Ubisoft has confirmed the potential revival of the beloved Rayman franchise. Job listings for a "AAA Rayman game" were briefly available online, indicating development is underway. Ubisoft is seeking a senior game designer and a 3D gameplay animator to contribute to this new title. The postings raised excitement among fans, suggesting that Rayman will return with new adventures after a long hiatus. This announcement follows last year's hints from Ubisoft about revitalizing the franchise, showing that the company may finally be ready to give Rayman a chance at a significant comeback.

Will there be a new Rayman game?

Yes, Ubisoft is reportedly developing a new AAA Rayman game, as indicated by recent job postings for key positions in the project.

Rayman, an iconic character created by Ubisoft, has a rich history in platform gaming, first debuting in 1995. The franchise is known for its vibrant artwork, whimsical characters, and engaging gameplay. It has seen numerous sequels and spin-offs but has not had a significant release in recent years. The revival comes after Rayman's cameo in an NFT game, signaling Ubisoft's recognition of the character’s enduring popularity among gamers. Fans eagerly await more details on this anticipated project, especially considering Ubisoft Milan's previous success with the Mario + Rabbids series.

About time Rayman got some proper attention—here’s hoping Ubisoft leans into that classic 2D platforming goodness instead of chasing trends. Just don’t overcomplicate the limbless legend’s comeback Job listings are promising, but after that NFT mess, Ubisoft better deliver a game that reminds us why Rayman’s weird, wonderful world ruled the ‘90s.

Finally, Ubisoft’s giving Rayman the AAA love he deserves—hopefully it’s more OriginsLegends magic and less NFT nonsense. Fingers crossed they nail the platforming charm that made the series iconic Job listings for a 3D animator Sounds like Rayman might be getting a visual glow-up, but let’s hope the gameplay stays as tight as those limbless acrobatics.
