Yo, check out this awesome new piece from Jim Norman at Nintendo Life — he just dropped an in-depth look at Rayman Legends Retold for Switch 2 and honestly we're getting some fantastic details about both the gameplay and those all-important hardware specs! Ubisoft announced Rayman Legends is returning in a complete overhaul package and they've already given us hands-on access, sharing detailed new visual footage from what looks like early levels. The game was built primarily on PC (that's actually our only version we could play at this stage), but we also got the Switch 2 build running live alongside them so we can ask questions directly to devs!
Now for the real meat of this piece: Ubisoft Brand Producer Loïc Gounon absolutely says they're "pushing [Switch 2] to its fullest" — and I love that laugh-while-working attitude right there. They've got a brilliant collaboration with Ubisoft's German team behind them too, which is exactly the same crew who handled the Switch 2 port of Star Wars Outlaws! Meanwhile Tech Director Thibaut Assandri confirmed they're targeting **60fps across all platforms** — and in our brief time playing just that first section we didn't notice any drops whatsoever. They had to reduce handheld resolution slightly for this smoothness (which is honestly totally expected), but Assandri says it's actually "not as good as expected, but much better" than the team hoped before they started tweaking environment LOD and character detail!
They're still absolutely aiming for 4K docked mode with DLSS kicking in to upscale things accordingly — so big screen you get proper crisp visuals while handheld keeps those buttery smooth frame rates. Admittedly it's all target talk right now, but we've got plenty of time before that **October 1st full release** and fingers crossed this holds up (or improves!). You can check out the deep dive feature with more interviews down on Nintendo Life if you're really into your dev chatter. This feels like a gorgeous foundation for future Rayman titles going forward — seriously hyped about where Ubisoft is heading!
