There has been a lot of chatter about something special coming from Ubisoft for a while to commemorate Rayman's 30th anniversary, and now they've shadow dropped the definitive collection of his very first game for players to jump into.

Welcome to the only copy of Rayman you'll ever need, with 5 versions included in one. This release brings the PlayStation, Atari Jaguar, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance, and MS-DOS all under one roof. There's also the SNES prototype that was thought to be lost forever that you can check out to see how Rayman came into being - if you're a super fan, then I imagine you're getting pretty excited right about now!

There are over 120 extra levels and a documentary on how Michel Ancel brought everyones favourite limbless hero to life to dive into aswell. This documentary has new interviews with the devs who made the game and goes headfirst into the design work that made Rayman's maiden voyage possible.
