The remastered 2D platformer, developed by Ubisoft Montpellier and published by Ubisoft under the Rayman franchise, is scheduled to release on December 3, 2026.
What to expect: platform-specific costume bonuses
Nintendo of America's announcement details tied platform bonuses to early purchases.
Switch 2 owners who buy Rayman Legends Retold will receive a Rabbids-themed costume unlocked for free on the player's first visit to Victor Velour’s in-game costume shop.
PlayStation 5 purchasers will receive an Astro Bot costume, while the costume for Xbox Series X|S purchasers has not been confirmed.
In journalistic terms, Nintendo of America said the Rabbids outfit will be made available at no additional cost to Switch 2 players the first time they enter Victor Velour’s costume shop in Rayman Legends Retold, a title arriving December 3.
The company likewise confirmed an Astro Bot skin as the PlayStation 5 pre-order or purchase incentive, but did not identify an Xbox Series X|S equivalent.
Developer and franchise context
Rayman Legends Retold is the latest re-release in Ubisoft's long-running Rayman platforming series.
The original Rayman Legends was developed by Ubisoft Montpellier and first launched in 2013 across multiple platforms; Ubisoft Montpellier remains the studio most closely associated with the franchise.
The new Retold edition is positioned as a visually refreshed version for current-generation hardware, with platform-specific bonuses to encourage purchases across consoles.
Announcement and distribution notes
The costume reveal came via Nintendo of America’s social post rather than a Nintendo Direct presentation.
As with modern console releases, digital storefronts such as the Nintendo eShop and PlayStation Store are typical distribution channels for titles on those platforms.
For players tracking platform differences, the confirmed Switch 2 Rabbids costume and the PS5 Astro Bot outfit are now part of the official pre-launch details for Rayman Legends Retold.
Ubisoft and Nintendo of America released the information on November 9, 2026; the game will arrive December 3, 2026.
