I love the modern Rayman games so god damn much, wow. Rayman Legends has not aged a single day in the last ten years. It still looks absolutely stunning and its controls are the most satisfying out of any 2D platformer I have ever played.
And the levels, my GOD THE LEVELS. Rayman Legends goes absolutely bonkers with all of its ideas and I love it. As a result, it's both fun in single- and multiplayer. Usually, platformers can get really annoying in multiplayer (looking at you, NSMB), but Legends is fun no matter how you play it.
Possibly the only gripe I have with Rayman Legends and the reason as to why I prefer Origins by just a tiny bit is that it kind of doesn't feel like an adventure and more like a level pack. The whole thing of the hub world being a gallery and level themes being all over the place with little cohesion makes it feel a bit artificial. Idk, I prefer the epic adventure vibe of Origins. But that's a tiny nitpick, Rayman Legends is still one of the best 2D platformers ever made in my opinion.

I don't have as many memories with this one as I do Origins, but that's not a slam on this game by any stretch. Legends is every bit as polished & well-executed as Rayman's previous outing, if not more so. The ridiculously fun music-themed levels are worth the price of admission by themselves. Another vibrant, cartoony, high-octane & creative entry in the Rayman canon. Bonus points for the Mario Bros. costumes in the Wii U version.
A fantastic and varied platformer with infinite content if you let it take hold of you. The single player content is already excellent with a lengthy main mode and extra levels from Origins on top of it. The other portion of the game is the online challenges where you compete in random generated content for the top ranking. On the vita, the competition is fierce and it can be difficult to get a platinum if you try to get it legit. The vita version is a great port btw. Either way, don’t miss out on this if you enjoy the genre.
Absolutely masterful, this game gave us an even more vivid version of the artstyle of Origins, and a lot of new fantastic levels to go through. A lot is carried from Origins, except now all powers are available from the get go, so level design for all levels factor them in.
Idk what to say that's new, this game fucks, and everyone should play it.

A game for the real LEGENDS

Un chef d'oeuvre des jeux de plateforme 2D avec un level design excellent. La courbe de difficulté nous amène en douceur vers des niveaux impressionnant aussi bien dans leur apparence que dans le challenge proposé, le tout culminant au niveaux musicaux à la fin de chaque monde qui lorsqu'on les maitrise enfin de bout en bout offre une satisfaction sans pareille !
