"Rayman Jungle Run is coming to iOS and Android on September 20th, and it runs on the same UbiArt engine that Rayman Origins used. In other words, it's going to be a bit gorgeous." Greetings from Montpellier, France! We are the Rayman Production Team here to give you an update about our latest project. After months of production with Pastagames, we are happy to announce that Rayman Jungle Run is coming to iPhone and iPad!! The game is powered by the same UbiArt Framework engine that brought you Rayman Origins - Winner of multiple Game of the Year and Platformer of the Year awards. Rayman Jungle Run is easy for all ages to pick up and play, but challenging for the longtime Rayman fans to master. You can also unlock the Land of the Livid Dead levels if you have the skills. The game features: Graphics enhanced for Retina Display 40 levels of platforming action Smooth touch-based controls Exclusive wallpapers to unlock for your device Supports Multiple Cloud Game Saves GameCenter Leaderboards Controls. Rayman automatically runs, the player simply taps to jump and hover. The game will be released on September 20th on the AppStore. As mobile gamers, we had a blast working on it and we hope you will have a blast playing it too.
This is really awesome, the ubiart engine is amazing. But looking at that trailer makes me think that the game doesn't have any controls other than jumping and punching. It does seem like rayman is always moving forward... I Hope that's not the case Update: From this website it is confirmed that rayman is always loving orward with no directional movements. http://www.gameblog.fr/news/30952-rayman-jungle-run-deboule-sur-iphone-et-ipad It's also made by a French Studio with the help of Michel Ancel himself and will feature 4 worlds, 40 levels and every world will offer ifferent controls like flying. It's out september 20th for 2,39€! Looking forward to it, and if it's retina display on the ipad...

Awesome, my favorite part about Rayman Origins were the "don't stop running" levels because of the way everything falls perfectly in place around you. Hopefully this game will have the same. Hopefully they add an endless mode later, but I'll probably pick it up regardless.

Wow thanks Ubisoft!! This was certainly a surprise out of nowhere! This looks instant buy BUT we are afraid of controls ... again. These platform games are aimed at playing with the traditional control like console controllers. I don't know how it's gonna work with only the touch screen. By the way Ubisoft, what happened to Might&Magic: Clash of Heroes??? We are waiting for this as well! It's a classic game.
They will work perfect? As proven already by many iOS developers already... And probably will be or one tap or gestures controls. Welcome to the forums Ubisoft, always welcome
I just hope it isnt tilt left or right to move coz that would be disappointing. LOL. Should be instabuy otherwise.
With the amount of time and energy I poured into Origins on my Vita, this will probably be an insta-buy for me too.
