Rumour: Rayman Legends Remake May Be Announced This Summer

According to a recent report from Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson, Ubisoft is developing a remake of Rayman Legends, the acclaimed side-scrolling platformer. Henderson, known for reliable industry intel, discussed the project during an episode of Insider Gaming’s podcast, stating he has “heard quite a lot of positive things” about the remake.

The journalist suggested the announcement could come this summer, noting that the game is currently in progress. Henderson indicated that the remake will feature content from the original game, saying “they’re bringing everything back from that game.” While cautious about exact timing (“But who knows?”), Henderson expressed confidence that the project is real and actively being worked on.

The rumor arrives as the video game industry enters what is commonly referred to as “silly season”—the period leading up to major summer gaming events when rumors and announcements typically proliferate. Rayman Legends, originally released in 2013 as a side-scrolling action-platformer, has been well-received and maintains a dedicated fanbase, making it a logical candidate for a remake with updated graphics and modernized gameplay elements.

This report remains unconfirmed by Ubisoft at this time, so audiences should treat it as a rumor pending official announcement. However, Henderson’s track record in the industry has made his reports noteworthy to gaming enthusiasts and media outlets alike.
