Originally designed as ominous creatures for the unreleased platformer ''Rayman 4'', the Rabbids were reworked in the final release, a party game known as ''Rayman Raving Rabbids'', as more child-friendly and goofy mascot-like characters, and they gained enough popularity to take the focus away from Rayman in later titles, spawn a cartoon on Nickelodeon, and eventually overshadow him starting with 2009's ''Rabbids Go Home''. Their most critically-acclaimed appearance is ''Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle'', a tactical RPG featuring {{uv|Mario}} characters, as well as their Rabbid counterparts, such as [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Yoshi]], [[Peach]], Cranky Kong, and [[Donkey Kong]]. As "anti-mascots" of sorts to the French studio, they have also made cameos in other Ubisoft games such as ''Assassin's Creed': Odyssey''; ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Smash-Up!''; ''Far Cry 5'' and even briefly returning to the ''Rayman'' franchise in the mobile game ''Rayman Adventures''.

The Rabbids themselves are depicted as immature and childlike, often pulling childish pranks involving plungers, underwear and toilet paper among other juvenile items. They are known for their distinctive "bwah" screech and singing along to popular pop songs.
