Ubisoft Delays Rayman Legends Retold to December 3 After Saying It 'Went Gold'

The studio says the extra weeks will be used for final polish and may improve the remake’s chances in a less crowded December window.

Overview

  • Ubisoft and the Rayman development team announced on Monday that Rayman Legends Retold has shifted from an October 1 release to December 3, 2026.
  • The team said the game “has officially gone gold” but chose the delay to “make sure every detail gets the care it deserves,” a rare postponement after finalization.
  • The remake rebuilds the 2013 platformer with 3D visuals on Ubisoft’s Snowdrop engine and will release on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2 and PC.
  • Ubisoft plans a Game Overview trailer and a set of creator and press hands-on impressions on September 22 to show what the extra time is for.
  • Reporters note the delay follows a pattern of recent Ubisoft schedule shifts and could reflect both polish concerns and a bid for more visibility in an unusually crowded fall release calendar.
