Glossing over some video footage of the demonstrations held for several Wii U games after Nintendo’s press conference at New York City this past Thursday, I came across a tidbit regarding Rayman Legends that may prove worrisome for those looking to run and jump on their own.
In the game’s co-op mode, Rayman Legends tasks up to four players with Wii remotes or Wii U Pro controllers to run and jump through the levels in classic Rayman style. An additional fifth player handles Murphy, a guardian controlled by the Wii U GamePad’s touchscreen that is tasked with manipulating enemies and obstacles along the way.
Ubisoft’s Emile Morel was on hand to take questions during a Rayman Legends demo, and one pertinent question by an individual set off a whole bunch of speculation regarding how the game plays in single player mode.
Insider Gaming - "Ubisoft has cancelled yet another game, this time ending development on the Animal Crossing-inspired title Alterra."
HALIFAX (April 14, 2026) – Laid-off Ubisoft workers in Halifax have voted overwhelmingly in favour of a settlement with the video-game giant. The terms of the settlement, including the compensation employees will receive, is confidential.
I can't sit here and act like I know these workers financial situations. And I'm sure nobody wakes up WANTING to go to court. But for the sake of the industry, I wish some of these types of cases made it to trial.
Settlements allow companies to continue to do whatever abusive practices they do. While the trials (should the company lose) would actually force real changes for the better.
But again, I'm not in these workers shoes and I can understand them not wanting to risk it.
Two-day event includes exclusive reveals, trailers and playable games on show floor.
It sounds like thats something you can do on the gamepad alone.. I would assume using other controller options you can play as Rayman normally
Hmmm... That does seem pretty weird, but the game looks great. I'm willing to give Ubisoft the benefit of the doubt until the reviews come in.
Game looks dope. But the single player was something I was weary about, and I don't like the sound of only being able to play as Murphy for 50%(or more) of the game but we shall see once it comes out
