Our Own Chris McEntee Shines in the Leaked Rayman Legends Wii U Trailer

Today Kotaku, Joystiq and Gamasutra reported on the new leaked Rayman Legends game for the Wii U. And to our surprise we see a familiar face! Its our former writer Chris McEntee! We knew that Chris worked at the last Rayman game and he was working on a new project but this is something he could not tell us about. And now we understand why! The game looks phenomenal! It shows us that The Wii U has some other tricks up its sleeve .  The Wii U’s near field communication enables you to put an object on its the Wii U’s screen and recognise it.

We wish Chris all the best in the remaining time on developing this game together with his team at Ubisoft!

For now. Great work guys and keep it up! it sure looks promising.
