Not to be outdone, Ubisoft is apparently getting in on the animated arms race currently underway on streaming service Netflix, and in a rather surprising way. Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix is an imaginative take on the larger Ubiverse, and it's headed for Netflix alongside the just-announced Devil May Cry and Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft animated outings. Unlike the others, this one has a date, so expect things to get increasingly bizarre from 19th October.

Join Dolph Laserhawk's revolution in a world full of familiar Ubisoft characters, although many have endured gritty reboots. We spotted Rayman, a couple of characters from Beyond Good & Evil, and apparently, even Assassin's Creed's Altair reimagined as a frog for some reason. It looks just crazy enough to do Blood Dragon justice, but we'll have to wait and see how it all comes together.
