You can take or leave most hype, because it is, just that, hype. We've heard it all before, or so I thought, until I talked to Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot this week. He dialed his enthusiasm up. Way up.

Yes, everyone was mad when Ubisoft delayed Rayman Legends to port it over to other platforms. However, the bright side of the shift is apparent when you watch the video above. The signature cartoony look, slapstick humor and charming animation will be on more than just one console when the game comes out. All is…

It was supposed to be a Wii U exclusive but now Rayman Legends—after that controversial delay—will be coming to a total of four systems on September 3rd. Along with Nintendo’s home console, the action platformer will be hitting the PS3, Xbox 360 and PlayStation Vita.

Rayman Legends' stand-alone online Challenge Mode, promised as compensation for the game's delayed Wii U release, is launching today on the Wii U eShop as a free app. Ubisoft has put out a trailer showing off what it looks like.

When Rayman Legends' Wii U release was delayed by months so 360 and PS3 editions could be put together, owners of Nintendo's console were pissed.
