We’re working hard to study each version of the game and bring the best aspects of each version to our game. We want the experience to be the best for new and returning players alike!

Our version of Rayman 2 will be a complete reimagining of the original game, featuring expanded levels and story but keeping the base and tone of the original story and gameplay.

The combat is being reworked to remain faithful to the original combat mechanics, while also being more modern and fluid to give the best combat experience possible.

The story will be the same as the original, with some added context, lines, and background information to make it more enjoyable for players.

We will be creating our own version of the hunlevel with elements from each version of the game. We promise you’ll love it!

We have been implementing full controller support in the game from the start.

The demo is available for download at GameJolt. Because our game is a fan remake, we can’t release our game on official stores at this point.

At the moment we are intending to release the game on PCs with Windows. Performance wise we intend the game to be able to be run on a Steam Deck using the Proton compatibility layer. There are currently no plans to release the game on other platforms or consoles.

The full release of the game will be free to download.

Right now, we’re focused mainly on just developing the game and getting it into a releasable state before anything else. If it’s not too much of a technical lift to support modding, we will definitely look into releasing modding tools for the community to add onto the game and make more content with it, so we don’t plan on putting any blockers in to deter modders. It’s a game made for the community, so we want to contribute as much as we can.

No.

We have spent a lot of time making sure that the game is in a playable state and haven’t tested it intensely performance wise yet. We are planning to make performance a priority in the next state of development. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Building levels and systems takes time, especially in a team that runs on volunteers. We wanted to give you a vertical slice of the full game as early as possible, and we think just the Fairy Glade gives a nice overview of what we are planning for the full game.

We are planning in-game cutscenes for all of them. The animatic in the demo was made as a replacement for the lack of animations and will stay as an extra in the full game.

Because our game is a reimagining of the original game, we have devised a new dynamic music system that is incompatible with the music used in the original game. Because all art assets are also made anew, we decided that an all-new soundtrack would also be fitting for the reimagined version.

No, we are currently going to be only supporting English voice acting for accessibility and convenience.

So far we have translated the game in 13 widely spoken languages, which are: Dutch, English, Danish, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, and Ukrainian. We are dependent on volunteers to help us translate the game, and for your language we haven’t found anyone yet. You are welcome to join our team to help out with a language that is not covered yet, see https://newdawn.games/join/ for information on how to reach out to us. Note that we are not able to accept applications for languages that are already covered in the game.

Because the demo acts as a vertical slice, we are not planning to update the demo with new content at this point, aside from critical bug fixes.

We have a dedicated channel for feedback in our community Discord server at https://discord.gg/Db2WcTRgDS.

We are currently not accepting public bug reports, because we have an internal bug reporting system that is used by our QA team. If you’ve encountered a game-breaking bug, then you can share that with us in the dedicated channel for feedback In our community Discord server at https://discord.gg/Db2WcTRgDS.

Please contact the board of directors at contact@newdawn.games, they will reach back as soon as they can.

Most of the core team is active in our community Discord server at https://discord.gg/Db2WcTRgDS.

We share updates on the development of the game regularly on our socials, available in the footer of our website at https://newdawn.games/, and our community Discord server at https://discord.gg/Db2WcTRgDS.

After the release of the demo we are going to focus on building new levels. There is no public roadmap available at this point.

At the moment we are focused on releasing the full version of Rayman 2: Redreamed and we have no concrete plans for future projects at this point.

Yes! We are a group of volunteers making this game alongside our normal lives. That’s why this game will take more time than normal games to be made, but we promise that it will be worth the wait!

No, Ubisoft hasn’t reached out to us.
