Rayman returned for his 30th anniversary, but instead of a celebration, Ubisoft faced a wave of negative feedback. The anniversary edition, intended as a tribute to fans, is being criticized for changes that players believe spoil the spirit of the original.
The game has only 51% positive reviews on Steam after 170 player opinions.
The main dispute was caused by the music: the developers replaced familiar melodies with new arrangements and compositions. Reviews say that the new tracks are "terrible" and destroy the unique atmosphere of the levels. Particular irritation is caused by the lack of ability to return to the original music, which many consider an unforgivable mistake.
On the Steam forums, there are also complaints about technical problems and unstable game performance, which further alienates players. Although optimization requires additional checking, the combination of controversial audio and bugs has turned the Rayman anniversary edition into a festival of disappointment. The community is demanding urgent updates with classic content.
