Ubisoft has started development on a new Rayman game, and series creator Michel Ancel is working on the project as a consultant. The company's Milan and Montpellier studios are in the "exploration phase" for the title.

Eurogamer received confirmation about a new Rayman game from Ubisoft, after Insider Gaming reported a remake was in the works for the franchise. "We are pleased to confirm Ubisoft Montpellier and Ubisoft Milan have recently started an exploration phase on the Rayman brand," a Ubisoft spokesperson said. "The project is still in its early stages, and we will share more details later. As creator of the Rayman brand, Michel Ancel is being consulted to ensure consistency within the universe."

Ancel is the original creator of Rayman, but in 2020, he was investigated by Ubisoft for allegations of creating a hostile work environment. This came shortly after Ancel resigned from the video game company. He also outright denied the allegations at the time.
