Zero hype. I'm not touching it with a ten-foot pole.

I think Rayman actually looks pretty decent here, He has a bit more of an extracted expression, And idw if its just me but he kinda looks like the SOH design here

Uhh... okay...

How come this depiction of Rayman always looks better in-game (during gameplay and in pre-rendered cutscenes) compared to his promo art? I don't know why, but something about his expression here just looks unnatural to me. Maybe I'll warm up to it as I look at it more, but right now this is probably my least favorite official render of Retold Rayman. :oops2:

I'm not a huge fan of it, but I've got to admit that it allows for more expressiveness.

I really think they overdid it with the eye sockets.

Ubisoft posted an article for Kung Foot Evo on their blog! Not much to write home about on the forum, but I figure it's worth a read nonetheless.

Honestly, I think Rayman looks fine here! His eyes might look a little deep with the now clear bridge between them, but he really doesn't look bad to me. I really like that they're letting him keep his exaggerated expressions.

He looks fine to me; his skin might be a bit more reddish-pink than I remember, but as far as I'm concerned he's still the same Luchador. :)

Also, what video you find that model from? If there's any other character models they show off there, I'd love to see them!

He looks pretty much the same as the original to me.
