Rayman Legends demo launching November 18th

Did Ubisoft delay Rayman because of Mario being a launch title, or just because they have like 5 other games coming out? Seems weird releasing a demo for a game that is coming out in like 6 months.
 
hey, Ubisoft, I am totally okay with this just being the kiosk demo on ONE condition.

that it has five player support. thanks!

It would definitely be overshadowed by Mario at launch, but staggering your releases a bit isn't the worst idea.
 
Ideally it's slightly deeper than the in-store demo, but whatever, still great news.

And if it is the same, it will have suport for more than two. A nice employee at the NWS in NYC went a bit beyond protocol and sync'd up a second wiimote to one of the units and we got some Globox, Rayman, Murphy action going on

I'd assume it's to get it as far away from Mario as possible. Rayman will probably wind up being the better game, but launching a 2D platformer on the same day as a New Super Mario Bros is suicide.

Six months? At worst, it'll be March, and that isn't six months away.

Awesome news though. Hope this becomes the norm for the system.

perfect then.
 
Played the demo on a kiosk today. My first Rayman experience ever (and I have a $10 sealed up PS3 copy of Origins at home too, I'm terrible).

Was joyous! Was the rock level we've seen vids of for months. Basic, but fun!

I still think it was delayed because NFC wasn't ready.
 
Great news, day 1 download. Assuming it's available in the UK too.

That Ubisoft WiiU app sounds promising as well. Suggests we'll get more apps.
 
I can't seem to find any demos, or even a way to search for them / sort by them. If you type in "demo" it lists a few 3DS games that have 'em (but not all).
