Rumor: Rayman might be coming to Smash Bros.

I hope this is paving the way for Tingle DLC

[Update: It’s fake, as shown in the video above. While it’s nice to have a detailed explanation on how this fake was made, what I really want is a detailed explanation on why it was made, preferably with sideline psychoanalysis from Dr. Drew and Dr. Ruth.]

A video has surfaced on YouTube that appears to show Rayman, the titular hero of Ubisoft’s popular franchise, as a selectable character in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. We’ve posted a mirror in case the original is taken down.

A picture of Rayman on the Super Smash Bros. for 3DS character select screen has surfaced too.

Right now there’s no solid information, but the inclusion of trophies for Rayman and his best friend Globox in the Wii U version may point to a little validity to this rumor. Of course, it could all be bullshit too. A Rayman amiibo would be pretty rough too.

We’ll post more details as they’re available.
