Rayman Raving Rabbids is a video game in the popular Rayman series. The game was released as a Wii launch title. Development was initially led by Michel Ancel, the original creator of Rayman, at Ubisoft's Montpellier studio. The game was brainstormed while Montpellier worked on the King Kong video game, and began full development shortly after King Kong went gold.
The game consists of more than 70 'trials' which aim to make innovative and varied use of the unique Wii controller. There are two main gameplay styles: Story Mode (which unlocks the trials) and Score Mode (which unlocks challenges and bonus material). The minigames can be replayed in Score Mode to better one's score or compete against other players either in multiplayer or through the use of a "web code" system for online standings at Ubisoft's Rayman website. A sequel, Rayman Raving Rabbids 2, was announced for the July issue of NGamer magazine.
