Comparison of Rayman Legends Retold and the original sparks debate among players

After the announcement of Rayman Legends Retold at PlayStation State of Play, the first comparisons with the original game appeared online. The updated version sparked debate among players due to changes in Rayman's appearance and the new art style.

The published footage shows a direct comparison of Rayman Legends and Rayman Legends Retold. The differences are immediately noticeable: the main character's appearance, location design, and the presentation of the game world.

Most of the criticism was directed at Rayman himself. Many players believe that the character lost some of his recognizable image, and the new style made him less unique. Some users write that the hero looks more like a character inspired by Rayman, rather than Rayman himself from previous games in the series.

The overall visual style of the project also causes controversy. Part of the community notes that this is not a classic remake with updated graphics, but a serious reinterpretation of the game's aesthetics.

The developers used new rendering technology and changed the world's presentation, which made some locations significantly different from the original. Some call this a natural evolution of the series, while others believe that the game has lost some of its unique hand-drawn charm.

At the same time, many players positively evaluated the higher quality models, modern visual effects, and updated graphics.
