This product is like new. At NexWave Games, like new means:
Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.
Rayman Legends for Nintendo Wii U
Rayman Legends is a two-dimensional platform game in which Rayman, Globox and the Teensies travel through paintings into mythical worlds. Running, jumping, gliding and striking form the base, but each area adds its own rhythm and obstacles. You free Teensies, collect Lums and find hidden rooms to unlock paintings. Music levels tie jumps and attacks to the song's beat, making an error immediately visible and audible.
The campaign supports local co-op: players move together, knock one another out of danger and return quickly after a mistake. Murfy helps by moving platforms, cutting ropes and bothering enemies. On Wii U an extra player controls him directly with the GamePad touchscreen, allowing up to five local players; on PlayStation Murfy follows set prompts. Kung Foot adds short local football matches. Old online challenges are not promised as available.
This Nintendo Wii U release of Rayman Legends was checked separately for controls, presentation and delivery. The product title determines whether a regular, budget or No Manual edition is supplied. Historical network features are not promised as available; the campaign and local content on the disc remain the core of this version.
Region and language
Our Nintendo Wii U games are PAL editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Manual
Rayman Legends for Nintendo Wii U includes the manual unless the product title states otherwise. If the booklet is missing, the title says “No Manual”. This lets you see before ordering whether the game comes with a manual.
The manuals included with our games usually contain at least English and often around six European languages. The exact languages vary by edition, so Dutch is not always included. The booklet explains the controls and the main rules. You can use it to check how to control the game, which actions are available and how its different features work.
The history of Rayman Legends
Ubisoft Montpellier developed Rayman Legends under Michel Ancel, and Ubisoft released it in Europe on 29 August 2013. The project began as a Wii U title using the GamePad as a second play surface. Release was delayed so PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and other versions could arrive together. The hand-drawn UbiArt style of Rayman Origins returned with more layers, larger bosses and levels tightly combining visuals, music and control.
The PlayStation 4 version followed in February 2014, keeping the same main game with sharper presentation and short loading. Essentials and PlayStation Hits are budget releases of the same platform version, not different campaigns. The PS3 bundle with Rayman Origins contains two separate games; this description specifically covers Legends. Ubisoft ended Legends online services on PlayStation 3 and Wii U on 1 October 2022. The local campaign and disc-based co-op remain independent.
