My theory is that this guy is Mr dark because:
- Holding orbs ( The protoon???)
- Similar colour palette,eyes,dark aura and mysterious look
- Mr Dark never had a full body look, chances could be this is a new redesing for a proper 3d model and not just a 2D png

I've workshopped a little theory as to why I think this way and honestly it's pretty obvious once you take everything into consideration. I call this Rayman theory....
The Mini-Dark Theory (or Sequel Theory works too...)
A Thead🧵:
Grant Kirkhope and Christophe Heral are the composers for Rayman Legends: Retold! Heral returning from of course the original Legends, and Kirkhope having prior experience with the series from Rayman in the Phantom Show.
No offense, but Rayman never had a consistent core visual art style, with the exception of the UbiArt duology. These screenshots show this too, because if you take out the characters, I would think each of these screenshots comes from a completely different platformer series
I know there are a lot of folks wondering why Ubisoft remade Rayman Legends because it still holds up, but I think everyone will be pleasantly surprised tomorrow. It looks really impressive.
My strongest head cannon for Mr. Dark is that under his cloak he should be nothing but the embodiment of darkness.
I'd loathe if they brought him back for a new Rayman game but gave him some weird mouth, nose or anything 😭
