I don't remember seeing anything about a pirate or jungle world, but Crouching Huns and a Gothic, Transylvania-themed world called Drak's Nightmare were indeed scrapped from the game. It doesn't look like any of those worlds aside from the Land of the Livid Dead are coming back in Retold; a missed opportunity for sure, and I wish they could have at least brought back Drak's Nightmare, but it's not really the end of the world either.

It still runs on the UbiArt engine internally, but the depth planes UbiArt runs on are mapped to curved surfaces in Snowdrop and enhanced with all kinds of 3D stuff. The way this pipeline was created, the developers' tools enable them to run the original UbiArt levels and the newer Snowdrop versions at the same time.

Some players, of course, may prefer the classic 2D look. Given that the two art styles play side by side so seamlessly in-engine, I ask whether players will also be able to toggle between the two art styles at will, Halo-style. “We don’t have an answer to give you on that at this time,” I’m told, somewhat cryptically. Read into that what you will.

They're making something resembling an effort to embrace the established world and history of the Rayman series, for the first time ever in a way many of us thought Origins was trying to do (only to be proven wrong when the game came out), and I'm optimistic.

I don't know, the level design feels a bit lacking and it doesn't seem to match the rhythm as well as the original game's music levels to me. A large part of that is the player messing up, but it doesn't seem to explain everything. Maybe it's just that the animations are less snappy or that the sound effects are less immediate, but it feels a bit off. And I don't particularly care for the song selection or its arrangement here. (Sorry for being rather negative)
