Since the cancellation of Phoenix's Rayman 4 was followed quickly by the development of Ubisoft Montpellier's Rayman 4, there may have been some connection between the two, but this remains unconfirmed. This confusion was furthered by the Game Boy Advance version of Rayman Raving Rabbids, which incorporated aspects of both cancelled games. There has been much confusion regarding the relationship of these games, since Rayman 4 was also the working title of Rayman Raving Rabbids. In May 2006, Ubisoft unveiled Rayman Raving Rabbids, a new 3D platformer being developed by Ubisoft Montpellier under the direction of series creator Michel Ancel. It depicts much more surreal and colourful environments than those which were seen in early Rayman Raving Rabbids images and trailers many of these Rayman 4 environments were 3D recreations of areas from the original Rayman game. Most of what is known about Phoenix's Rayman 4 comes from early artwork, which has been leaked gradually in the years since the game's cancellation. The project was discontinued after four months of development. An unknown amount of programming, modelling, texturing and special effects creation was carried out during the pre-production of the game. The story is largely unknown, but an early draft may have existed at this point. The project had its beginnings in 2005, when concept art was created for various environments and characters. Had it not been cancelled, Rayman 4 would have been the first game in the main Rayman series not to be developed by the Ubisoft Montpellier studio. Rayman 4 is an unreleased 3D platform game developed for Ubisoft by Phoenix Studio.
