    Even if you've played this on other platforms, there is something special about this game which makes it perfect for "on the go" with the Nintendo Switch! Such a great platformer, the music stages are a blast! One of the best 2D platformers for your money that don't start in "Super Mario"!

    One of the best platformers ever made is now even better on the Nintendo Switch. Graphics are awesome, gameplay amazing and the amount of content is well worth the purchase. 10/10.

    Absoloutely loved this game. It was an extremely unique and fun 2D platformer. The visuals were great, The levels were amazing and breathtaking, and the music was also really great. It also had exclusive Mario and Luigi costumes for Rayman and Globox. This game is really fun and best when played with friends.

    This is probably the best platformer i have ever played. I got it for 10$ when there was a sale on the e-shop and i don't regret it. I truly recommend this to anyone who wants a good platformer for a low price.

    Visually it is wonderful and is a very entertaining game. The reason I cannot give this higher then an 8 is because we have seen this all before. Nothing much was added to the game from the Wii U version. If this game was $19.99 I would rate higher.

    Never played a Rayman game before but damn, this is so fun. I completed it within 3 days, because it is so addictive. The levels are great, perfectly balanced and scale beautifully into each next part of the game. I wish it was even longer, but hey, you can always come back to this game for the daily challenges. Thanks ubisoft for this port to the switch.

You can try to binge this game, but it's probably better as a game to play hard for a few hours and then come back to days or even weeks later. It's great because even though the levels are super creative, the construct of 2-d platforming is best in smaller doses and most levels are small enough to beat in just a few minutes. Expand

Bosses are pretty cool. Characters are good. The second land of living dead painting is ye- I mean hatred. Pure raw hatred. Um other than that its good. Get it. Now.

    With better level flow, incentive for replayability, and a simply rocking fun time, the Rayman reboot sequel is everything you could want! (Except that the Switch version of the Murphy's Touch bonus levels are impassable due to their incompatibility with the gyroscope in the rotation segments, for some reason.)

Each level contains a certain number of collectibles and to move on to new areas you usually must have a certain amount. The game has no build up to the final boss and often lacks substance - there is no direction the game is going in. To make up for this, they tried to add so much content that it makes you forget. Overall, the lack of direction and atmosphere hardly takes away from the game. I would recommend this to almost anybody.

    Recommendation: if you like Shovel Knight, Mega Man, Mario, or Sonic games you will enjoy Rayman Legends.

There are only a few, but these are some of the greatest levels ever created.

    There are a few minor complaints such as the Murphy levels that are quite slow and don't achieve the same high level as the rest of the game. These levels also have to be played in handheld mode with some questionable motion gestures. But this pales in comparison with the very complete package of this game which contains +100 levels, several daily and weekly challenge modes and some of the most creative game design you'll ever see.

    That's why I forgive it its almost non-existent plot and its hub I needed a few minutes to orient myself in.

    One of the best platformer games for the switch. I can't believe how much I enjoyed playing it. The level design is amazing and music is superb. Great. 10/10

    This is fun. Simple sweet fun. Sometimes it goes on sale on the eShop for ten bucks. You won’t regret this for ten bucks assuming you enjoy solid side-scrolling platforming.

    Rayman Legends might be one of the best 2D platformers ever made, especially for a multiplatform game.

    HOLY HELL this game is GREAT, It's up there with one of my favorite games of all time. The gameplay and controls are superb. The soundtrack is also good and the rhythm-based levels are really fun!

    The game has alot of content as well! You got the main game, the back to origins levels, the murfys touch levels, and you got the challenges. This game is easy to pick up for beginners but it

    An amazing 2D platformer. I just love the art style on this. The level design and music are great. This game has been released on 1000 consoles already, but it feels so good on handheld mode on the Switch that you don't want to play it any other way.

    One of my favorite games ever. Perfect audio-visual setting. I have played on Xbox before and the Nintendo version is the same - you can play everywhere :) Cool

    I tested the game the first time on Xbox 360. This version has a new world, but I can't give 10 out of 10 as some games are better.

    Amazing game with cool and interesting levels. You can spend hours upon hours playing this and you won't get bored whatsoever. There is this extra challenge for those who want it and i like that, satisfying rhythm levels with great songs.

    Rayman Legend is the best part in the Rayman series, but I advise you to go through Rayman Origins first

    This game is my favorite game of all time. The art-style is awesome, the controls on point and the levels each feel unique. Plus it can get really challenging, if you wanna 100% it, cause there's basically two games here with the bonus levels.

    I bought this game a total of three times. PS3, PS4 and switch and each play and feel the same

    This game is a couch co-op gem! Family or friends can enjoy this together, and skill level isn't a big issue. Stronger players can carry the weight for less experienced ones.

If one person tries to rush ahead and be too much of a hero on their own, they will quickly learn the value of teamwork. The soccer mini-game Kung Foot is a big hit in our household too. Also try the daily and weekly challenges! Expand

    Great game, but you can’t change the keybinds, which was quite disappointing. The game is a bit small, but it has lots of replay value.

    In my opinion, it‘s the second best platformer.

    Very good game.It runs perfectly on the Nintendo switch and the gameplay is fun.But they didn't improve much to call it the "definitive edition"

    It's sad to see the Switch get the worst version of a wonderful game. [Issue #30 – November/December 2017, p. 63]

    In bringing the latest Rayman adventure to Switch, Ubisoft has given the machine easily one of its most visually stunning and enjoyable releases to date. Not quite living up to the moniker of Definitive Edition with increased loading times and performance hiccups, as well as a missing feature, Rayman Legends is still well worth the lower asking price to those yet to jump into Rayman's world, yet outside of the portability aspect it offers little to entice series veterans.

    Rayman Legends: Definitive Edition adds new elements to the original but does not try to to revolutionize the game. It doesn't need to, as it's already a fun, varied and compelling piece of work, which becomes more alluring thanks to the added handheld component of the Nintendo Switch.
