Rayman Legends gets Mario and Luigi costumes

The long delayed platformer gets a minor edge on Wii U

Players who purchase Rayman Legends on the Wii U (and let’s face it, why wouldn’t you given how well tailored it is to the system) will be able to dress up as both Mario and Luigi in exclusive costumes for the game.

Announced tonight by Satoru Iwata in the latest Nintendo Direct presentation, Rayman himself will be able to dress up as Mario while Globox will dress up as Luigi. Obviously, these costumes will be exclusive to the Wii U version of the game.

This can only be seen as a kind of “response” to the Playstation Vita version’s exclusives, which features costumes from Prince of Persia as well as Splinter Cell.

Rayman Legends players on Wii U will be able to dress up their characters as Nintendo’s infamous dynamic duo, president Satoru Iwata announced today in a Nintendo Direct presentation.

As previously confirmed, the game will also feature several stages from Rayman Origins, updated and remade in the Rayman Legends engine. So the game seems to be packed with content from the get-go.Rayman Legends will be available in Australia on August 29th, 2013 at a very reasonable RRP of AU$59.95.
