The leader of the Rabbids seems to be the obese and decadent Jabbit the Rabbid. An early teaser shows Teensies fleeing from the Rabbid army. Other characters from Rayman 3 also appear. In order to defeat the Rabbids, Rayman is forced to join forces with André, the villainous Black Lum who orchestrated the Hoodlum invasion in Rayman 3. Familiar characters from previous Rayman games appear, and find themselves in new situations, as the Rabbids intend to use them for 'strange purposes'.ĭuring the game, Rayman meets and falls in love with a female member of his own species, Simohne. The only one who can defeat the Rabbids and bring an end to their invasion is Rayman, the hero who has protected the Glade from evil many times before. The game begins when, after decades or centuries of plotting and scheming, the Rabbids rise from the ground in huge numbers, armed with the gigantic war machines and flying crafts that they have constructed, and begin their vengeful takeover of the Glade. Retreating underground, the rabbits grew bitter and hateful, ultimately becoming the insane and violent Rabbids. Because of their stupidity, the rabbits were shunned and bullied by the other creatures. I'd like it to sound absurd and funny.' Īt the time of the original Rayman game, or perhaps earlier, the Glade of Dreams was inhabited by innocent and friendly rabbits. Michel Ancel said of the game, 'It's a comedy, like Mars Attacks or some Monty Python movies. The goal was not a complex storyline, but a suitable framework for developing the characters and the situations. The game's story was intended to be simplistic, clichéd and ludicrous, in a parody of the storytelling devices that are standard in platform games. The game was announced for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Windows, and the Nintendo Wii, which was then codenamed the 'Revolution'. Under development by Ubisoft Montpellier, the game was to be a free-roaming action platforming game, in which the player would control Rayman as he battled against an invading army of Rabbids. It was announced by Ubisoft on the 11th of April, 2006, shortly after the cancellation of Phoenix Studio's unrelated Rayman 4 project.
