  • Rebirth of a Platforming Legend: It's been 15 years since the first launch of Rayman. Rayman Origins brings back many of the classic characters, revived in their original 2D form, as well as a whole new world of characters and environments. Discover the roots of Rayman by collecting pieces of the Glade's history, and assemble them to reveal the truth behind Rayman's origins.
  • 4-Player, Jump-In/Jump-Out, Co-op Gameplay: Play as Rayman in the solo campaign, or have up to three friends jump in at any time to play as Globox or as one of the two Teensies. Players can leave at any time without affecting the others̵7; progression.
  • Unique Approach to 2D Art: A rich world with over 100 characters and 12 unique environments created by some of the VG̵7;s most reputed artists and animators. This creative approach to 2D design will recapture the hearts of platformer fans and introduce a new generation to one of the industry̵7;s best-loved characters in his original 2D form.
  • A Vast Playground: Rayman Origins includes over 60 levels of 2D platforming gameplay designed for all ages and playing styles. Unlock new abilities progressively and return to previous levels to discover new paths and secrets.
  • Variety of Gameplay: Rayman Origins is a platformer at its core, but it has elements of many game genres. Rayman, Globox and the Teensies gain unique abilities as they progress through the adventure, including swimming, diving and the sensational Hairly Copter. The game also features many elements of action, adventure and beat-̵7;em-up gameplay.
  • Epic Boss Fights: A giant pink monster with hundreds of eyes... A possessed, mountainous golem... An evil daisy-c**-carnivorous plant...Rayman Origins will put players to the test with these and many more challenging boss battles!
  • A Handful of Highly Talented Artists and Engineers: Rayman Origins was developed by the UBI art team in Montpellier and is built on an open-source game engine̵2;the UBI art Framework̵2;designed by Michel Ancel to allow much smaller teams of artists and developers to produce incredibly high-quality graphics and gameplay quickly and efficiently. This garage-game approach has led to great strides in creativity and innovation.

    I bought Rayman Origins because I love side scroll adventure games. And Rayman Origins does not disappoint! If you have ever played NEW Super Mario Brothers WII it plays similar to that BUT with a few (in my opinion) better game play tweaks. First of all in two player mode you can "bubble" one of the characters if they get left behind or "die". Which is akin to NSMB except you the player can actually control where your character floats to. Where in SNMB the AI did that for you, which was very annoying. Secondly there is no character collision like in NSMB. This means you can both jump in Rayman Origins and not bump into each other causing unnecessary frustration.

    Other factors I enjoy about Rayman Orgins are:
    1 Replay value is moderately high, because there are trophies and time challenges to pass after you have actually finished each level.
    2 Two Player is just as fun, if not MORE fun than single player mode. (Guys and Gals this is a good play together game) Yah Teamwork!
    3 As seen in other Rayman games, very cool musical integration as Rayman interacts with the level environment/enemies the sounds correspond and complement the background tracks. This provides and extra form of entertainment for anyone playing.
    4 It plays essentially the same on both consoles, so buy on which ever you own or play more often on.

    The perfect game for when you need a break from going on a first person rampage. Rayman games have always had trippy characters and game play and Origins follows right along in that respect. This is a refreshing game to have in your collection and it's great to play with friends - considering it has the ability for up to three additional players to jump in and out of co-op play at any point. It's hard to compare this to other games in my collection because it is truely unique, but I am very glad I decided to pick up a copy.

    I always played Rayman but I was always a little disappointed with the graphics. Not in this game! This game is one that I will play probably hundreds of times. If you like the other Rayman games, you too will love this one.
