Next-Gen Face-Off: Rayman Legends

Featuring beautifully drawn 2D visuals and imaginative gameplay, Rayman Legends stands out as one of the best games released last year, showing that the humble 2D platformer still has much to offer amongst a sea of blockbuster first-person shooters and open world action titles. It's also one of the few games to deliver native 1080p visuals running at a smooth 60fps - an impressive feat rarely seen on the previous generation of consoles, and something which both the PS4 and Xbox One are struggling to achieve in an era where pushing prettier pixels on screen is still considered to be more important than targeting high frame-rates.

Eurogamer, the xboxone struggles to reach 60fps. Struggles to reach 30fps in some games as well.

You should not mention PS4 in the same breath.

PS4 is 50% more powerful.

badz1493711d ago

This is one of the less demanding game out there and running 1080p 60fps shouldn't be any problem for both the PS4 and Xbone. Would be a surprise if any platform struggles.

BoneBone3711d ago

So Wii U the best version. No surprises there.

MrChicagoWind3711d ago

I would not be surprised if these were the exact same videos posted side by side. I honestly can't tell any difference. Maaaaaybe the PS4 version is a tad bit smoother, but it could also be my bias lol.

Oldman1003710d ago

You would think they could've at least added some MSAA to the PS4 and Xbox One versions? lol

Will There Ever Be A New Rayman Game?

Ubisoft barely have a leg to stand on lately, so do they need to crack open the vaults and return platforming royalty to glory for some goodwill?

We need Rayman 4, they could make a great platformer game if they wanted. With the open hub levels and the like.

Better than relying on Rabbids and Assassins Creed all the time

Profchaos49d ago

Yeah agree id love a Rayman 2 style 3d platform game over another 2d platformer I know people loved legends but it never gelled with me same as Rayman 1 back in the day on PS it just felt like a average platformer with sonic and Mario offering something better on what was then last gen hardware

Terry_B49d ago

Yes..but I am sure it won't be the Rayman game fans want. Not from the company that is Ubisoft today.

mastershredder49d ago (Edited 49d ago )

Ancel is retired from games. His hoodlum/rabbid team are doing their own thing. It would not be the same if Ubisoft did.

Profchaos49d ago

Probably far more profitable to make low effort Rabbids games aimed at kids over a next Rayman

Chocoburger49d ago

Experience points, skill trees to fill up, level gating, endless menial tasks and side quests, constantly scrounging for resources. Always having to upgrade your gear. A.KA. "The Ubisoft effect".

No thanks, don't ruin Rayman's legacy.

Profchaos49d ago

Sure there will be it'll launch right alongside the next splinter cell

Rayman Legends - 10 Years of Legendary Platforming

Rayman Legends made its debut 10 years ago today, and has been launched on nearly every gaming platform since.

HankHill231d ago

Too bad Ubisoft only cares about live service games now. Maybe one day they'll make a new Rayman game.

Venoxn4g231d ago

Great games.. would be cool to get qn Origins remaster at least..I know that many of the levels are in Legends, but still

Outlawzz231d ago

Loved this game but wish they would create a new Rayman 3d game.
