    One of the best 2D platformers out there, the most important characteristic of Rayman Legends is that it is fun, you will play 10 levels in a row and don't even notice the time passing.
    I played a lot of rayman when I was a kid and this game brought me joy everytime I picked it up.
    They've put everything that was great about Rayman Origins and more creating this masterpiece. The gameplay,

    I recommend this game to everyone.

    I first played this game in 2013 on the WiiU but i wanted to replay it and it was amazing. I thought it was great back in 2013 but after playing it again now in 2021 i its easily one of the best games of all time. This game does alot of good and nothing bad in my opinion.

    Rayman: Legends (2013) is a hilarious action-packed sequel of Rayman: origins. Somehow managing to be better than the amazing previous game. Rayman: Legends (2013) has great graphics, gameplay, music, and is just an all-around fun adventure.

    Beautiful platformer game with a very cool & creative level design. I think the gameplay itself is too slowpaced though.

    Great game with an unique charm. You can play co-op. The difficulty also scales up as you play. There are a ton of levels. Definitely recommended

    One of the last really great games that ubisoft released. It has a good diversity of scenarios and style of gameplay, captivating musical levels and great options for a post game, all that with a local multiplayer that works very well and makes the game much more fun.
    I really hope that ubisoft does not abandon the franchise and soon launches a new Rayman.

    Um dos últimos jogos realmente bons que a ubisoft lançou. Tem uma boa diversidade de cenários e estilo de gameplay, levels musicais cativantes e ótimas opções para um post game, tudo isso com um multiplayer local que funciona muito bem e torna o jogo bem mais divertido.
    Realmente espero que a ubisoft não abandone a franquia e lançe logo um novo Rayman.

    In my opinion the best 2D perspective platforms of this generation. Brilliant level design packed with secrets with tons of collectibles, plenty of rayman skins and new playable characters. Packed with content and super fun on the premises with friends. Essential.

    This game deserves 9.5/10 (It is just not possible on Metacritic).
    It has been almost five years since I played this game and I still think of it as one of the best 2D platformers I ever played. I played it with my girlfriend (who is now my wife) in couch co-op mode and I really recommend it to everyone who likes co-op games.

    The beautiful art style and one of the best soundtracks make this game super addictive. You will find yourself jumping to the rhythm through the playthrough. Each level is unique, challenging in some other way than the previous one and rewarding. The game itself is not hard (much easier than "Origins") but it has lots of lots of collectibles that can be challenging to gather.
    I recently completed Hollow Knight and praised it for boss design. Rayman Legends deserves similar praise for level-design. My awards goes to music levels, where you jump and beat your enemies to the rhythm of the super-catchy soundtrack.
    I found myself playing it long after I already beat the game. This is the only game in which I ever played "daily challenges" and I have to admit they were amazing (I kept repeating them until I was able to win a gold prize).

    I like the game, I really do. Fun and often challenging, but it has near-enough no story and less charm than the original Rayman title. Yes okay you can play like 20 different characters, but even Mario games can afford to give them different abilities, enough to change the gameplay.

    Now I haven't been with the Rayman franchise's evolution, but the open, exploration platformer that the first game was is nowhere to be seen, taking a faster, quicker and linear pace; even in the non-action levels.

    So the game is good but not quite exceptional. Fun but it has lost something important to me, over the years.

    Close but no cigar. But i'd smoke it.

    Nie istnieje platformówka lepsza od Raymana Legends. Grywalna jak diabli, poziomy muzyczne to majstersztyk, nie pozwala się nudzić. Nie lubisz tego, to nienawidzisz dobrej zabawy.

    Highly addictive, easy to start, but hard to master, I would say this is ideal platformer! Even if you don't played any platformer since Super Mario Bros. - just give the Game a try, you won't regret.

    A pretty good platformer that however does not compare to Rayman Origins. Legends is much easier, lacks the sense of progression present in the first game and does not have upgrades for Rayman. The hub is just a set of portraits (instead of the world map in Origins) and most levels are both easy and not better than Origins levels.

Legends is much easier, lacks the sense of progression present in the first game and does not have upgrades for Rayman. The hub is just a set of portraits (instead of the world map in Origins) and most levels are both easy and not better than Origins levels. Even though this game contains 2/3 of Origins, those levels were made easier and thus, worse. When the game finally gets good, you realize that you are at the end. The final boss is weird and the final world is a disappointment with artificial difficulty. Moreover, Murfy levels are pretty annoying and not well implemented. There are no new treasure chase levels or mosquito shooting levels, instead there are invasions (short time attack levels) and music levels (which are great).
    Despite everything I've written, the game is still loads of fun and one of the better platformers of the recent era. Origins did it better, though.

    Great game. This is a truly amazing platformer with a good visuals and sound. There's also some humor and the levels are as creative as they come. The musical levels are truly the highlight in my opinion.

    + Forgiving checkpoint system, with difficulty being optional in whether the player wants to complete all the levels with gold medals and all the Teensies
    + Incredible art style, a lot of aesthetics that are masterfully achieved, and ridiculously good animation
    ? Could make a loooong list of small level design issues throughout the game (particularly the boss levels and some of the time trial levels), though this is probably due to how massive the game is
    ? The "Back to Origins" levels were an interesting addition, but they're obviously much more poorly designed than the Legends levels, which makes sense since they're from the first game
    - Some of the mechanics are not particularly well-designed or implemented, especially for how much they're used, notably the gliding wind areas (pretty terrible character movement control) and the very inconsistent wall-running mechanic

    This game should have had 11 because Rayman Origins is already 10 and this one is an improvement. Unfortunatelly, rating system has it flaws and you cannot rate something better than the best.

    Platform gaming at it's best... The only platformer that is truly as good as Super Mario games... A lot of others have tried in the past (crash bandicoot games , abes oddesey) but rayman games are the only ones to have achieved it. Amazing game , pure perfection...

    Probably the best platformer ever. Different game mechanics like running, jumping, hitting, swimming, flying, shooting. Perfect music. Excellent graphics and animation. Unlockable characters that are acutally fun. Enough challenge and levels to play it for days. And great co-op mode that works with any controllers. And you can even smash the letters in end-game credits.

    While in many ways superior to Origins I’m giving it the same score because it’s a little bit too similar in places, nevertheless Rayman Legends is one of the best platformers of all time and you should definitely buy it if you want to have a smile on your face.

    Rayman Legends falls just short of being an absolutely timeless classic, but that’s just about the worst thing anyone can say about it. It’s every bit as good as its predecessor — stronger on some fronts and a little weaker on others — and continues to strengthen Rayman’s position as an enduring gaming mascot.
