Rayman Legends: Leaked Wii-U Trailer

Skylanders-like NFC stuff with some heart-thing, Rabbids and Ezio Auditore.

Controller still looks pretty unconformtable though.

game looks a lot better than those blurry screens (because they were blurry screens). really looks wonderful in motion. i wonder if legends was going to be episodes iii and iv at some point early when origins was in development.

not sure what the portal/rabbid stuff means. new levels? just extra background stuff? don't understand, exactly.

The charching cable or to captue video... Or something we might don´t know yet. And we don´t know how long ago this was shot...

Don´t jump to conclusions!

Well this was meant to be released at E3 right? Surely they would have wireless controllers for trailers at least?

wuuuuuuuut

How in the world does the Skylander's mechanic work? The Wii U's pad is just a resistive touchscreen! How can it differentiate between figures?? [edit] Oh, probably bluetooth. Or something.

The graphics are splendid. I wish a 3D game's trailer would leak too…

....that ending was just for fun, right? They're not really gonna put that Skylanders garbage in Rayman, are they?

....I'm scared.

Looks good otherwise. They 3D models do a solid job of emulating the Origins style.

Not sure why they announced new playable characters though if they aren't going to show gameplay of them.

I'm confused to what the Wii U exclusive content is as well. Just the gimmicky controls. Or does that Skylanders crap count too?

Wait, so can someone explain what's going on at the end of the trailer? What's exactly happening?

Someone correct my terms if I flub this: WiiU Tablet has a thing called NFC (Near Field Communication) that can sense objects within a radius of the controller to interact with the games. Apparently even credit cards and the such can be used with this tech down the line.

Holly Shit... I've seen it.. they totally "skylander's" it, and it was surprising :-O

Does this confirm the Wii U to have that kind of sensor thing at the surface of the WiiU tablet ?? Wow massive :))

Massive leak... Ubisoft. Thank you

So confirmed only one WiiU controller supported? In the video you can see 3 standard controllers and a tablet...

NFC is no business for me

They say Exclusive content for WiiU so that means it's multi X360/PS3/WiiU

More like an NFC-chip in the controller/Figure. With bluetooth it wouldn't make sense to put them on the screen/would be a power drain.

I don't understand what happened at the end, but it was kinda cool.

The game looks not much better than good ol Origins though.

HYPE HYPE HYPE

looks fantastic!!!

though I laughed when I realized it aped music from how to train your dragon.
 
Will that actionfigure thing with the Wii U pad be a Wii U thing or is it just sensing the touch or whatever? Would be a cool feature!

NFC, or Near Field Connection is used in the WiiU Tablet Controller, so figures that use the same tech too will be acting for things like preorder bonuses, unlocking exclusive bonus content (think collectors editions with statues etc, where the bonus unlock is tied to the figure)

I am sold on this game. Just the fact that you can bring the rabbids into this game is an instant buy for my Girlfriend. Also the Upad integration looks like the biggest troll device I've ever seen. Oh you want to get up there... well hand me some beer first. Awesome.

They were highlighting asymetrical Multiplayer Gameplay. I'm still not sure if you can use more than one Tablets at the same time, but this shows off how gameplay ideas are implemented. I for one love it.
