Rayman Legends gets shiny new release date

Ubisoft has confirmed a release date for the now multiplatform Rayman Legends.

The game will be hitting Wii U, PS3 and Xbox 360 simultaneously on August 30th.

Rayman legends was once, lest we forget, a Wii U exclusive that was initially scheduled to be a Wii U launch title. However, having missed the arrival of Nintendo’s machine Ubisoft braved the wrath of the Nintendo faithful by not only postponing its release but also robbing it of its Wii U exclusivity.

Having decided to try and appease the rabid masses, Ubisoft then announced a free Rayman Legends Challenges app – which as it happens is available to download from the Nintendo eShop from today.
