So straight up, if you’re after a good single player game with a very satisfying measured progression, you can probably stop reading and get it. So if you don’t know anything about Rayman Legends, it’s pretty easy to summarise- a very fluid platformer, with a huge amount of levels and activities to play in, each with their own secrets and goals within. So the majority of this review will be from the perspective of somebody only just getting into Rayman Legends now, but if you want to know if it’s worth the double dip on Switch if you’ve already played it, I’ll put my thoughts on that near the end!

And Rayman Legends Definitive Edition has everything the original had, plus a few bonuses, making this version the best way to play Rayman Legends, either at home on the TV, or out and about. That much has been true since the original release in 2013. A local multiplayer football game, Kung Foot, is also featured, in which players use attacks to knock a football into the opponent’s goal.Rayman Legends is a really well made, gorgeous and incredibly fun game. More challenge stages can be accessed by raising the player’s ‘awesomeness’ rating, which increases by collecting trophies earned by rescuing Teensies, collecting a high number of Lums in each level or by having a high leaderboard position at the end of a challenge. Once completed, the nightmares are defeated and the player is awarded with ten thousand lums and six new invasion paintings. If four hundred teensies are saved, the player unlocks the last world of the game, Living Dead Party. After the creature has been destroyed and the last Dark Teensie is sent to the moon, the credits roll. After defeating four of the Dark Teensies and fighting the worst of the nightmares, Rayman and friends go to Olympus Maximus and confront a giant cloud of dark energy. Rayman, Globox, the Teensies, and Murfy set out to defeat these new threats. Rayman and friends are awakened by their friend Murfy who tells them about the bad news, and tells them that the ten princesses of the land (including Barbara) and the Teensies have been captured by the nightmares and the Dark Teensies. During that time, the Bubble Dreamer’s nightmares grew in strength and numbers, and so has the Magician (who has survived the explosion in Rayman Origins), who has split into five “Dark Teensies”. Rayman, Globox and the Teensies have been asleep ever since. Its Story takes place one century after the events of Rayman Origins.

Murfy moves automatically and can be prompted to interact with certain objects with button controls. n single-player mode, control will switch over to Murfy during certain sections whilst the computer controls the player’s character. These offer a range of levels in which co-operation is required to progress. Murfy can perform various actions such as cutting through ropes, activating mechanisms, grabbing hold of enemies and assisting in gathering Lums. In addition to the main playable characters, Murfy the greenbottle, who first appeared in Rayman 2: The Great Escape, appears as an assist character. Along with Rayman, Globox, and the Teensies returning as playable characters, players can now control new female character Barbara and her sisters, once they are rescued from certain stages. Collecting Teensies unlocks new worlds, which can be played in any order once they are available. Lums can be collected by touching them, defeating enemies, or freeing captured Teensies. The game carries on the style of gameplay from Rayman Origins in which up to four players (depending on the format) simultaneously make their way through various levels. The game also offers daily and weekly challenge stages, in which players can compete with other players via leaderboards in challenges such as collecting a certain number of Lums in a short time, or surviving the longest on a stage Gameplay Some levels feature remixed ‘Invaded’ versions, which must be completed as quickly as possible. The game features over one hundred twenty levels, including forty remastered levels from the original Rayman Origins, which are unlocked by obtaining Lucky Tickets, which can also win additional Lums and Teensies.
