Rayman — play online free
Rayman is a 2D platformer from Ubisoft with hand-drawn backdrops of forests, giant musical instruments and worlds made of pencils and erasers. You play a hero with no arms or legs who throws his fist to attack, setting out to free the Electoons, caged after Mr. Dark steals the Great Protoon. He starts out with very little, and the fairy Betilla gradually grants new abilities such as hanging from ledges and gliding with his hair. It is remembered for its charm and music, and just as much for its real difficulty: demanding jumps, limited lives and well-hidden cages.
Tips for playing Rayman
- ▸Hold the punch before releasing it; a charged fist travels farther and hits harder.
- ▸Check odd corners and empty-looking spots for cages; freeing every Electoon is required to reach the final area.
- ▸Revisit earlier levels after gaining new powers, since some paths and cages are out of reach the first time through.
How to play
Rayman starts right in the player above — nothing to install. Use the keyboard, plug in a USB or Bluetooth gamepad (Xbox, PlayStation, 8BitDo…) and it's detected automatically, or use the on-screen controls on a phone or tablet. Press F5 to save your progress at any moment and F7 to load it; F1 opens the menu to remap buttons.
