Story
Following the events of Rayman Origins, Rayman and his friends have been sleeping for one century. During this time, the Bubble Dreamer's powers have been growing and releasing more nightmares, while the Magician survived the events of the previous game and ended up being split into five Dark Teensies. Rayman and friends are awakened by Murfy, who tells them that the ten princesses of the land and the Teensies have been captured by the Bubble Dreamer's nightmares and the Dark Teensies. Rayman and friends must save the princesses and Teensies and defeat the nightmares.
Gameplay
Gameplay of Rayman Legends is similar to that of Rayman Origins. Rayman's control and moveset from the previous game are kept for this installment. Players progress from stage to stage by collecting Lums in each level.
Using the Wii U GamePad, players can control Murfy by using the touch screen, allowing him to interact with parts of the stage and helping players progress through stages. In certain areas when playing single-player, the player directly controls Murfy while Rayman is computer-controlled.
The game features a multiplayer minigame titled "Kung Foot", in which players are divided into teams and must attack a ball to knock it into the opposing team's goal.
Development
In April 2012, a trailer for Rayman Legends was leaked online, showing the game's graphical capabilities, multiplayer features and new characters, and NFC features on Wii U. Ubisoft would later state that the trailer was meant to be an internal demonstration, but confirmed that Rayman Legends was in development, being worked on by series creator Michel Ancel and Ubisoft Montpelier.[1]
In late 2012, Ubisoft announced that the Japanese release of Rayman Legends would be published by Nintendo.[2] However, in February 2013, weeks away from the game's release date, Ubisoft announced that Rayman Legends would no longer be a Wii U exclusive title in regions outside Japan, stating that Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions were in development and that the game would be instead released in September 2013 in North America.[3]
