The rumor was sparked by a comment from Ubisoft's official TikTok account. In response to a fan's question about the future of the franchise, the company briefly wrote: “Cooking.” That was enough to get the community talking about a full-fledged return of the hero.
As a reminder, the last mainline entry — Rayman Legends — was released back in 2013 and is still considered a benchmark in the genre. Since then, Rayman has only appeared in third-party projects, such as DLC for Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope, but has never received a new solo adventure.
Due to the prolonged silence and internal troubles at Ubisoft, fans had almost given up hope for a sequel. But this unexpected tease may indicate that the franchise has not been forgotten.
It is not yet known what the new game will be like — its genre, style, and the platforms it will be released on. One can only hope that Ubisoft will see the project through to the end and not stop at a single comment.
