Unfolding Developments and Mixed Reactions
If you’ve been keeping your ears to the ground, you might have heard whispers about the disbanded team behind Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown. This squad faced setbacks due to the game not reaching expected sales, and prior to their disbandment, they had thrown around ideas for more DLC and even a sequel. However, Ubisoft’s higher-ups rejected these plans, likely fearing a plummeting bottom line.
While The Lost Crown may not have hit those financial targets, it received solid reviews, making fans speculative about how these developers would tackle a new 2D Rayman game. This little platforming legend hasn’t had a true title since 2013’s Rayman Legends, although we’ve seen some mobile spin-offs and cool cameos in titles like Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope.
Adding to the mix, Michel Ancel, the original creator of Rayman, is reportedly onboard as a consultant for this ambitious remake. His involvement has stirred mixed feelings among the development team, particularly due to past investigations into his workplace conduct during his time at Ubisoft. Still, his creative prowess might just be the secret sauce needed to reignite the Rayman franchise, which fans have been craving for over a decade.
Fans Await a Comeback
Although the legitimacy of these rumors sits in the realm of speculation for now, the gaming community is ready to welcome back Rayman with open arms. Former members of the Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown team are reportedly involved in this remake, bringing experience from a franchise that is intertwined with gaming history.
The Prince of Persia series has come a long way since its inception in 1989, pioneering the cinematic platformer genre and leaving an indelible mark on action-adventure gaming. Its legacy, paired with the fresh potential of a revamped Rayman, could be an exciting new chapter for Ubisoft.
As we await more definitive news, fingers crossed that the beloved platformer will return with the flair and creativity that made him a household name. Are you excited for Rayman’s potential comeback? Share your thoughts and score some epic discussions in the comments below!
