TheRabbids (ラビッツ,Rabbits;Lapins Crétins (Moronic Rabbits) in French) are recurring characters inUbisoft'sRayman franchise. Initially antagonists, they eventually were given their own spin-off franchise.
Origin[edit]
Originally designed as ominous enemy creatures for the canceled 3D platformerRayman 4, the Rabbids were reworked for the party game known asRayman Raving Rabbids, as more child-friendly and goofy slapstick characters. Due in part to their debut game being a launch title for the massively successful NintendoWii and their overall marketability, they gained enough popularity to take the focus away from Rayman in later titles, spawn an animated series on Nickelodeon, and eventually overshadow him starting with 2009'sRabbids Go Home. Their most critically-acclaimed appearances are theMario + Rabbids series, a duology of turn-based strategy games featuringMario characters, as well as Rabbid versions of characters likeMario,Luigi,Yoshi,Peach,Cranky Kong,Donkey Kong,Wario,Waluigi, andRosalina. They have also made cameos in other Ubisoft games including as inanimate toys inWatch Dogs andFar Cry 5; playable characters with weaponry from theSplinter Cell franchise inTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Smash-Up; a cheat code inAssassin's Creed IV: Black Flag; dancers in theJust Dance series (which was in turn an extension of a minigame fromRayman Raving Rabbids: TV Party); and even a brief return to theRayman franchise as enemies in the mobile gameRayman Adventures.
The Rabbids themselves are depicted as immature and childlike, often pulling sophomoric pranks involving plungers, underwear and toilet paper among other juvenile items. While intelligence level varies on an individual basis, Rabbids are usually moronic and unable to learn from past mistakes. They are known for their distinctive "bwah" screech and singing along to popular pop songs.
InSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate[edit]
As a costume[edit]
In the January 16th, 2020Smash Bros. presentation, the Rabbids were revealed to be a Mii Costume headwear. Similarly toSlime, the ears of the hat bounce when in motion. The reveal trailer referencesMario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, using the title screen music (titledTwo Worlds Collide) and showing a Mii Brawler wearing the hat using aRage Blaster againstRay Gun-wieldingMario, as well as the originalRayman Raving Rabbids games with a plunger fromLuigi's tether grab.
