Changes Over Leaked PrototypeĪlthough the two versions, the final build and the prototype seen above, aren’t drastically different we can ascertain a small handful of changes by carefully analysing the footage.įor one, it’s evident that the team had yet to come up with the idea of using the character of Murfy to give context to the gamepad screen mechanics (or at least hadn’t implemented him into the gameplay at this point). Therefore, the actors in the trailer placed the figures on the screen instead. You can tell that Ubisoft was working with a prototype version of the Wii U hardware when this was made, as it includes an early, wired dev kit gamepad, which was without the NFC badge on the left of the controller. It appears that prototype figurine models were made and their planned in-game affects were programmed, but none of this would ever be officially released to the public. Mysteriously, the company never followed through on this NFC demo, in spite of the somewhat elaborate nature of the conceptual document. Towards the end of the video, it hints towards the possibility of other Ubisoft characters, when a figure of Ezio from the Assassin’s Creed series appears. Ubisoft’s video contained two uses of the proposed accessories: a heart figure, which would replenish the player’s health and a Rabbid toy that would cause Rabbids to appear in the game as enemies, as well as in the backgrounds of levels. Towards the end of the clip, it demonstrates a work-in-progress concept for NFC figures, which would have worked with the Wii U gamepad’s built-in chip. The build of the game shown in the reel wasn’t terribly different from the final release, but it did reveal one quite significant feature that was never implemented nearfield communication support. This was a conceptual video intended for internal purposes only, which was leaked by an anonymous source on YouTube from inside Ubisoft. On April 27 2012, the very first footage of Legends emerged online. It originally started as a Wii U exclusive, billed as a launch title for the console’s November 2012 release. It was released in 2013 on Wii U, Xbox 360, PS3, PS4, Xbox One, Vita and PC. Rayman Legends is a 2D platformer by developer, Ubisoft Montpellier, and the follow-up to Rayman Origins.
