Your complete guide to the 3D reimagining of the beloved platformer — release info, editions, controls, co-op, collectibles, walkthrough, and everything you need before and after launch.
Worldwide Release
October 1, 2026
Overview
Rayman Legends Retold is a bold 3D reimagining of Ubisoft's acclaimed 2013 platformer, developed by Ubisoft Montpellier and Ubisoft Milan using the Snowdrop engine. Beneath its cinematic visuals lies the same tight side-scrolling platforming fans love — now enhanced with a new story, fully voiced cinematics, a mysterious sixth realm, dragon-riding sequences, four new musical stages, and improved Kung Foot multiplayer.
The game supports solo play and up to four-player local couch co-op. Every Standard Edition includes Rayman Origins: Enhanced Edition — a remastered version of the 2011 classic with 4K resolution, 60 FPS, new collectibles, and quality-of-life improvements.
Genre: 2D Platformer (3D presentation)
Developer: Ubisoft Montpellier & Ubisoft Milan
Publisher: Ubisoft
Engine: Snowdrop
Modes: Single-player, 4-player local co-op
Composer: Christophe Héral & Grant Kirkhope
Why This Remake Matters
Ubisoft describes Retold as the foundation for Rayman's future. Brand producer Loïc Gounon stated the team chose Legends for its popularity, tight gameplay, and content variety — making it the ideal base to expand lore and world logic for a new generation.
Release Date & Platforms
Rayman Legends Retold launches worldwide on October 1, 2026. Ubisoft confirmed this date during Sony's State of Play in June 2026. Note: some store pages briefly listed an earlier placeholder date — the official global release is October 1.
PC versions require a Ubisoft account and Ubisoft Connect launcher, even when purchased through Steam or Epic Games Store. Plan your setup before pre-ordering.
Editions & Pre-Order
Choosing the right edition can be confusing. Every edition includes the base game plus Rayman Origins: Enhanced Edition. Pre-order any edition to receive the Hoodlum Havoc Pack — two costumes for Rayman and Globox inspired by Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc.

Story & Characters
Set in the Glade of Dreams, Rayman Legends Retold sends Rayman and his friends on a journey to restore peace when a shadowy villain spreads chaos across every realm. Unlike the original, the remake features expanded character interactions, voiced cutscenes, and a climactic conclusion in the new sixth realm.
Playable Heroes
Character
Role
Rayman
The limbless hero — balanced all-rounder (David Gasman)
Globox
Rayman's loyal friend — larger hitbox, great for co-op
Barbara
Viking princess — powerful melee attacks
Grand Minimus
Tiny Teensie king — compact, agile
Murfy
Assist character in certain sequences (Billy West)
Hidden Teensies are scattered across every level. Rescuing them unlocks new playable heroes, gallery content, and progression toward 100% completion. The sixth realm ties together the expanded lore that Ubisoft hopes will anchor Rayman's future as an ongoing franchise.
Worlds & Map
Rayman Legends Retold revisits the iconic worlds from the original game and adds a never-before-seen sixth realm. Each world contains multiple levels, hidden cages, boss encounters, and musical stages. Dragon-riding sequences connect the end of one world to the beginning of the next.

Co-op Guide
Rayman Legends Retold supports up to four players in local couch co-op with shared-screen gameplay. Players can drop in and out at any time. When a player dies, they become a floating bubble — teammates punch the bubble to revive them instantly.
Connect up to 4 controllers before launching the game
Press Jump on each controller to join at the character select screen
All players share one screen — the camera prioritizes forward progress
Collision is forgiving — players can stand on each other to reach high areas
No online co-op — use Steam Remote Play Together for virtual couch sessions on PC
PC Multi-Controller Troubleshooting
Ensure all controllers are detected in Windows before launching
For mixed Xbox/PlayStation controllers, configure each in Steam Big Picture > Controller Options
Set left stick as 'Joystick Move' for each controller individually
Disable DS4Windows if it conflicts with native detection
Try 'Forced On' for Steam Input if controllers are not recognized
One player can use keyboard while others use controllers
Best Co-op Experience
Two players offer the best balance for precision platforming. Four players is ideal for casual fun and Kung Foot matches, but musical stages and tight sections can get chaotic with a full party.
Collectibles & Items
100% completion in Rayman Legends Retold revolves around collecting Lums, rescuing Teensies, earning Electoons, and finding hidden Skull Coins. These systems carry over from the original with potential additions in the sixth realm.
Collectible
Purpose
Lums
Score currency — 600 Lums earns Gold Trophy per level
Teensies
Hidden prisoners — rescue all for world completion
Electoons
World unlock currency — earned from Lum milestones and speed runs
Skull Coins
Hidden collectibles worth 25 Lums each
Lum King
Temporary power-up — doubles Lum value while carried
Medallions
Earned at 350+ Lums in select levels
Scratch Tickets
Unlocked via Lum milestones — reveal bonus content
100% Completion Checklist
Rescue all Teensies in every level (including invasion levels)
Earn Gold Trophy (600 Lums) on every story level
Collect all Skull Coins and hidden cages
Complete all musical stages with perfect timing
Finish Cave of Trials challenges
Complete the sixth realm and defeat the new final boss
Unlock all heroes in the gallery
Lum King Strategy
Always grab the Lum King before collecting large Lum clusters. Red Lums are worth double points and are essential for hitting the 600 Lum Gold Trophy threshold on difficult levels.
Walkthrough
This walkthrough provides a pre-launch roadmap for completing Rayman Legends Retold. Full level-by-level guides with Teensie locations, Lum routes, and boss strategies will be published at launch.
Recommended Play Order
1. Complete the main story in order through all five returning worlds
2. Explore the new sixth realm for the expanded story finale
3. Return to levels missing Teensies or Gold Trophies
4. Tackle musical stages for rhythm-based Electoons
5. Complete dragon-riding sequences between worlds
6. Enter Cave of Trials for challenge rewards
7. Play invasion levels for remaining Teensies
8. Switch to Origins Enhanced Edition for the bundled second game
World Progression Tips
Play through each world once in story mode, grabbing obvious Teensies and Lums. After beating the final boss, revisit levels systematically — use the level select screen to track missing Teensies (shown as silhouettes) and Lum trophies (bronze/silver/gold indicators).
Post-Launch Content
Detailed walkthroughs for every level, including the sixth realm, new musical stages, and dragon-riding sequences, will be added on October 1, 2026. Each guide will include video timestamps and 100% completion routes.
Kung Foot
Kung Foot is the football-inspired local multiplayer mode returning from the original Rayman Legends. Retold improves the mode with better controls, new power-ups, and fully customizable rules — making it a perfect party game for up to four players.
Soccer-style gameplay using Rayman characters as players
Customizable match rules (score limits, time, power-ups)
New power-ups exclusive to Retold
Improved control responsiveness over the 2013 version
Playable independently from the main campaign
Best experienced with 3-4 players locally
Party Night Tip
Kung Foot is separate from the main platforming campaign. Launch it from the main menu for quick sessions between story levels or after completing the game.
Cave of Trials & Dragon Rides
Cave of Trials
The Cave of Trials returns with new challenges designed to test platforming mastery. These optional gauntlets offer rewards for players who conquer timed obstacle courses and combat rooms. Expect escalating difficulty tiers with unique rewards at each completion level.
Dragon Rides
Brand-new to Retold, dragon-riding sequences are 3D stages that connect the end of one world to the beginning of the next. Game Informer described them as cinematic transitions that break up the 2D platforming with aerial traversal. Master steering, dodging obstacles, and collecting airborne Lums during these rides.
Cave of Bad Dreams also returns from the original
Trials reward Electoons and gallery unlocks
Dragon rides feature full 3D movement in a side-scrolling game
Co-op may be supported in select trial rooms — details at launch
Rayman Origins Enhanced Edition
Every edition of Rayman Legends Retold includes Rayman Origins: Enhanced Edition — a remastered version of the 2011 platformer that started the modern Rayman revival. It is a complete standalone game with its own worlds, collectibles, and progression.
4K resolution and 60 FPS on compatible hardware
New collectibles and rewards not in the original Origins
Haptic feedback for compatible controllers
Quality-of-life improvements and modern UI
Also available as a separate purchase on October 1, 2026
Track progress separately from Retold for full completion
Two Games, One Purchase
Standard Edition at $39.99 includes both Retold and Origins Enhanced — effectively two full platformers. Complete Retold first, then enjoy Origins as bonus content worth 15-20 hours.

There are no official cheat codes for Rayman Legends Retold. As a premium Ubisoft title, the game does not use Roblox-style promo codes. Beware of websites claiming to offer free codes — they are not legitimate.

No Cheat Codes
Rayman Legends Retold is a skill-based platformer. There are no console commands, debug codes, or in-game code redemption menus. All unlockables are earned through gameplay.
