Paris, France -Moronic rabbits will soon invade Malaysia as French video game developer Ubisoft  unveiled plans to open its first theme park featuring innovative rides from its biggest franchises like Rabbids, Assassin’s Creed and Just Dance.

Ubisoft said it aims to have the 10,000 square metre (108,000 square feet) park in the centre of Kuala Lumpur ready in 2020 working with its local partner, Malaysia theme park developer RGS which is also set next year to open a park together with Dreamworks animation studios.

"Together we are creating a place where every guest is a player, every ride is a playground, every visit is a game," Jean de Rivieres, senior vice president at Ubisoft Motion Pictures, said in a statement.

RSG Chairman Ramelle Ramli said the company "is committed to redefining family fun, and video games have taken an increasingly central role in entertainment for all ages." 

Ubisoft has in recent years sought to diversify itself from video games, including merchandising the moronic rabbits as well as a TV show.

The rabbits have already invaded France's Futuroscope theme park with the Rabbids Dark Ride.
