Although Ubisoft has only just done a major organisational restructure<\/a>, it’s already been confirmed the mascot Rayman<\/a> is part of the company’s future plans.<\/p>\n

Now, following a rating for a Rayman 30th Anniversary Edition<\/strong><\/a> last month, the series creator Michel Ancel has made some comments about a new project to Retro Gamer Magazine<\/a>, which would apparently see the return of the first Rayman game.<\/p>\n

Here’s what he had to say, as highlighted by GamesRadar+ and some Rayman fans on social media:<\/p>\n

“I think there’s a kind of remake planned. I don’t remember when specifically, but it will be in HD and I think Ubisoft is adding a few more checkpoints and things like that just to make it a bit less frustrating. I think it’s a nice move, because that’s the only point that could be a problem for non-skilled players. But yeah, I think it’s still a very nice game.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

So, it really does look like this supposed revival is based on the first 2D Rayman game, which originally launched on the PlayStation in 1995. As our colleagues at Push Square<\/a> further note, it sounds<\/em> “like an enhanced remaster” timed with the original game’s 30th anniversary.<\/p>\n

This follows reports from last September<\/a> about a Rayman Remake being in development. Of course, we don’t have an official confirmation just yet, but the evidence is mounting.<\/p>\n
