Rayman Legends no longer a Wii U launch title

Rayman Legends is no longer a Wii U launch title, Ubisoft has confirmed.

The game was due out in Europe alongside the Wii U on 30th November. It now has a vague Q1 2013 release window.

"Rayman Legends will launch worldwide in the first quarter of 2013," Ubisoft said in a statement.

"We're happy that fans are excited about the game, and we are taking the time to make sure we deliver a game that lives up to and hopefully exceeds their expectations. We'll have more details to share soon."

The news is sure to disappoint prospective Wii U owners. Rayman Legends looked like being one of the console's best launch games.

Ubisoft's other Wii U launch game, ZombiU, remains on course for 30th November.
