Play Overview
Rayman Legends (2013) is a platform game, the sequel to Rayman Origins, where you get sucked into a painting that takes you to a fantasy world with all sorts of creative running and jumping challenges. It stands out for the multiplayer platforming and the musical levels at the end of each world.
You play through the 120 levels, with up to four players working together to run, jump and attack their way through the level. Collecting items offers a higher score and can unlock new worlds. Some of the levels are built around a combination of running, jumping and attacking in time with the music. Getting this right enables you to score more points and create music as you play.
There is a popular football-themed mini-game where you play a full-contact version of football with the Rayman characters. On the Nintendo Switch version, this has an additional Solo and Tournament Mode for pitting up to eight teams against each other.
The result is a beautiful platform game that's welcoming for groups of all abilities. Teaming up is key to success, but it's also fun to grind away on your own to unlock more levels.
