The two companies will team up together to make "a pilot and several shorts" on the characters.

"Aardman perfectly understands that humor and we are extremely excited to be working with them to bring the Rabbids to a new medium and a new audience."

"When the opportunity arose to work with Ubisoft on the Rabbids we leapt at it, we absolutely love the characters and can’t wait to help bring them to a television audience," added Aardman's head of broadcast Miles Bullough.

The Rabbids debuted in 2006 as part of Rayman: Raving Rabbids, although have since appeared in their own games.
