A classic PlayStation 1 game from 1995 is reportedly making a comeback on both the PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. The news comes not from a rumor or anonymous source, but from the Australian game rating board – the official organization that assigns age ratings to games before they’re released. Because games are only submitted for rating when they’re nearly finished, this suggests the game’s release is happening soon, and it hadn’t been publicly announced until now.
Okay, so this is weird. Australia’s ratings board just listed Rayman 30th Anniversary Edition for the PS5 and Switch, and I hadn’t heard anything about that coming out! The really strange part? It says Atari is both developing and publishing it. Now, Ubisoft owns Rayman, and they almost never let anyone else handle their games. Atari does sometimes publish games they don’t actually own – they did Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection recently – but it still feels off. I’m guessing this isn’t a big digital release Ubisoft is pushing, but a physical copy they’re letting Atari handle. Either way, it looks like the original Rayman from the PS1 is finally coming to PS5 and Switch, and maybe even other platforms if this is just a physical release thing. Pretty cool!
More Rayman
So, I heard Ubisoft officially said they were making a new Rayman game way back in 2025! And for a while, there were whispers about them working on multiple Rayman projects. This industry insider, Tom Henderson, even hinted they had something special planned for the series’ 30th anniversary, saying it was coming out ‘very, very soon.’ It looks like this new reveal is what he was talking about!
The first Rayman game, which launched the entire series, came out in 1995. Originally released exclusively for the PlayStation 1 by Ubisoft, it later became available on other systems. Critics loved it, and it became a huge success, selling incredibly well and paving the way for future Rayman titles. The most recent release was in 2016, when it was made available on mobile devices.
