Do you remember Michel Ancel's mad PlayStation 4 exclusive WiLD? The game was announced eons ago, and its first ever gameplay demonstration was mesmerising: it involved snake ladies and tribesmen who could transform into freakin' birds. It was basically the best thing ever, but all of the Beyond Good & Evil rumours have made us worry that it may never see the light of day.

Well, there's good news: the wacky Rayman maker has been messing around with the latest build of the title today, and posted an off-screen image up onto Instagram. "Getting lost in your own game is a great satisfaction," he wrote. "So many landscapes and situations to be discovered. I will try to post regularly some screenshots of the wild."

And just like that, WiLD lives again. We're genuinely desperate to see more of this because there's outrageous potential in the concept. If you don't remember – or, indeed, didn't even see – the Paris Games Week gameplay demonstration from a few years back, then do check it out above. It's absolutely brilliant.
