Rayman Arena Ships
Race, Battle, Reign Supreme! Ubi Soft Entertainment, one of the worlds largest video game publishers, announced it has shipped Rayman Arena(tm) for all console platforms and the PC. The first ever action-intensive multi-player game in the Rayman franchise, Rayman Arena combines intense footracing action and gladiator style battles, featuring the cast and environments of the Rayman universe. Players are immersed in up to 30 different worlds while unleashing the power of nine playable Rayman characters in the quest to reign supreme. "Rayman Arena promises to provide gamers a new multiplayer experience while maintaining the production value associated with the Rayman franchise," said Danny Ruiz, brand manager for Ubi Soft Entertainment. "Anyone who has experienced the Rayman world will undoubtedly get a kick from the fast paced gameplay and whacky cast of characters." About Rayman Arena Rayman Arena offers two modes of gameplay, the first of which, Race Mode, throws players in an every-toon-for-itself foot race where speed, short cuts, and tricks must be used in order to win with the fastest time. Whether players run, climb, or helicopter, Race Mode will prove to be no walk in the park. In Battle Mode, players enter the Arena for an all out lum fight where craftiness, like freezing your opponent and lum-shooting skills, can turn the tide to becoming the ultimate gladiator of the Arena. Featuring bonus levels, bonus modes, new characters and skins, the Rayman universe just got a whole lot bigger!Source: http://www.xboxaddict.com/
