Rabbids Go Home Revealed
Today Ubisoft announced that the Rabbids will receive their own standalone brand with the Holiday 2009 release of the comedy-adventure Rabbids Go Home. The games used to be branded under the Rayman moniker, but the naughty little bunny like creatures have proven to be popular. Developed by Ubisoft Montpellier, the team behind Beyond Good & Evil, Peter Jackson’s King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie and the original Rayman Raving Rabbids, the game will benefit from a new engine designed specifically for the Wii.
Not a lot of details on the game were released by Ubisoft but apparently the back story is that the Rabbids will unleash their unique brand of chaos on planet Earth as they attempt to make their way to their home planet. Look for more information on Rabbids Go Home in the May issue of Nintendo Power magazine.
