    Rayman: 30th Anniversary Edition is a great walk down memory lane. I love the gameplay, the dated visuals, and the incredible number of levels. However, the audio overhaul was not necessary.

    A journey to the origins of Rayman, with a challenging experience for beginners and that leaves us part of its history. This tribute feels somewhat fair, it is good, but it could have been much more. Long live our beloved Rayman.

    This collection is the best way to experience the original Rayman, offering multiple versions with modern enhancements and a wealth of archival content for longtime fans. However, as a 30th anniversary tribute, it feels underwhelming — lacking additional entries and replacing the original soundtrack with a new one that doesn’t quite capture the same magic.
