Rayman returns to his roots as a side-scrolling platform star in this adaptation for PlayStation Vita. Explore six distinct worlds and more than 60 levels as you swim, dive, and hover as either Rayman or one of his friends. The story finds Rayman, Globox, and the two Teensies united against the evil Darktoons. As you attempt to save Rayman's world, you'll gradually unlock new abilities for each character that will open up new paths and secrets on previously completed levels.

You'll also encounter an assortment of boss characters throughout the game, each requiring different techniques to defeat. The PlayStation Vita version includes multi-touch support for gathering collectibles, manipulating the camera, and more. While the game does not support direct multiplayer action, you can save and share your best times in each level with nearby friends. Clearing the level faster than your friend's ghost character will unlock various gifts for use in the main game.
