Rayman Legends - PlayStation 4

If you are into single player 2-D platforming it really doesn't get better than this. If you are familiar at all with the with the previous installment, Rayman Origins, you will feel right at home here. Everything looks better, is more polished and dynamic and is just an absolute blast to play. There are a few minor gamaplay changes that I'm not crazy about, but that amounts more to my personal preference than any flaw in design, and in no way detracts from absolutely loving the gameplay. Some highlights... - Challenge Modes- Daily and Weekly challenges for best time, distance, or collection goals to compete with on-line competitors. Goes a long way toward replayability. - Speed running levels - I always found these fun and challenging. The music based levels are truly an inspiration in level design. - Price vs. Content - at a $40 price tag this game offers way more content than most $60 retail releases. Also included are many levels from the previous Origins installment, that have been re-worked to use the new gameplay mechanics. What you may not like... - There is no character upgrade progression. You start with all the powers you had at the end of the last game. On one hand it's nice to have full character control from the outset, on the other, it's really nice to earn upgrades and introduce new gameplay elements throughout the game. - I am finding this to be a much easier game than the previous installment. I have had very little difficulty finding every collectible in each level and collecting enough lums(think currency) to achieve perfection on the first playthrough. Overall, this is AAA quality at a bargain price with tons of content and replay value. Even if you are not a 2-D platform fan you should play this.

This is a very fun family game. You can play up to 4 players and it’s so much fun . It’s a must try!

The latest in a long and distinguished line of platform games, Rayman Legends is a great followup to the previous-generation Rayman Origins. Rayman has always been built around finding secrets, but while the original game emphasized gradual skill acquisition and replaying levels to find previously unreachable parts, the newer games create variety somewhat differently, by varying the types and speeds of the levels themselves. This ends up being a great deal of fun, with all sorts of surprises to liven things up. The artwork is still just as detailed and gorgeous, although to my tastes the character art style of the earlier games was preferable to the more recent ones. Legends has a huge amount of gameplay in its main levels, and extras like a bunch of levels ported from Origins help extend the replay value. While the game is still quite challenging, I did find it a bit more approachable than I recall Origins being, and my kids (ages 4 and 7) are both very into it. Very highly recommended!

Great value and price for a playstation 4 game . Easy to play and great graphics.

This is a great group game and perfect for kids! Especially the little ones that want to play but not really ready yet. That won't slow down the play and can sometimes help. Great game!

Loved rayman since he came out for the sega saturn back in 1995, such a good game.

Well done Ubisoft! The music levels were just amazing. I think every game ever created should be required to have music levels regardless of genre.

Fun game! Slightly challenging but nothing too tough! Great game for all ages! Amazing and beautiful art style, production design/level design! Cute characters! Nice soundtrack! Interesting locales! Give it a shot! Definitely try and find Rayman: Origins, too!
