Rayman Legends , a 2D platform game, is the sequel to Rayman Origins . After the events of the previous game, Rayman, Globox, and the Teensies went into a century-long sleep. During that time, new nightmares appeared in the world, and the Magician was split into five dark teensies. These nightmares and dark teensies captured the princesses of the land, including Barbara, and other Teensies. The story begins as Rayman and his friends are awoken once again to right the wrongs.
The gameplay of Rayman Legends retains the graphical style and most elements of Rayman Origins . Up to four players can progress through side-scrolling levels, defeating enemies and collecting Lums. Each level has a number of Teensies to rescue, which opens up new levels and worlds. The characters have access to all their powers from the previous game, plus some new abilities, such as firing projectiles on certain levels. Murfy, the greenbottle, appears on some levels to aid the players by operating machinery and opening passages.
The game includes regular side-scrolling levels, "invaded" versions that need to be completed quickly, rhythm-based levels with music inspired by popular songs, and forty remastered levels from Rayman Origins that can be unlocked by collecting Lucky tickets. Players can participate in daily and weekly challenges and a local multiplayer soccer mini-game called Kung Foot.
Rayman Legends was released on 21st February 2014 for the Playstation 4, a platform known as the Playstation 4.
