I have recently checked the new update, and i can confirm that Rayman Control Panel still can recognize the game normallyMaster wrote: Tue Nov 25, 2025 8:58 pm Hmm, I might try running the PC version again at this rate then, does this new update break compatibility with Rayman Control Panel?
It's beautiful and sad to see how much more committed they are to Rayman's past than the company holding the rights of the franchise.Rayman 2: The Great Escape is an absolute icon of gaming and a masterpiece of a platformer. The game recently joined the GOG Preservation Program, and we want to make it loud and clear: the GOG version is the very best version available anywhere.
We’re incredibly happy that players can enjoy the ultimate experience of one of the genre’s greatest titles, thanks to the numerous improvements and fixes delivered through our Program.
Making sure legends like Rayman live forever is our mission. And it’s YOU, with your support, who make that mission possible. Thank you.
But enough talking! Check out the changelogs, make it yours forever, and enjoy

If you want to be an obnoxious pedant...I don't think the PS3 PS Store has been taken down yet, and if memory serves, you can get Rayman Revolution on PS2 Classics there...Mortamon Saturn wrote: Wed Nov 26, 2025 8:56 pm Inb4 someone comments "Butz muh Dreamcast/Revolution version!!", they obviously mean "still currently sold"

I remembered it at the last second before posting... but then also remembered it's exclusive to the US (where's it's called "Rayman 2 Revolution" and not "Rayman Revolution"), therefore not in Europe/France where Rayman originates from, and so I chose not to care.Master wrote: Wed Nov 26, 2025 10:27 pmIf you want to be an obnoxious pedant...I don't think the PS3 PS Store has been taken down yet, and if memory serves, you can get Rayman Revolution on PS2 Classics there...Mortamon Saturn wrote: Wed Nov 26, 2025 8:56 pm Inb4 someone comments "Butz muh Dreamcast/Revolution version!!", they obviously mean "still currently sold"

That always did bother me in honesty, why was it region locked? Not that it's a big deal these days considering how easy it is to employ alternative means, but it does boggle the mind.Mortamon Saturn wrote: Wed Nov 26, 2025 10:42 pm I remembered it at the last second before posting... but then also remembered it's exclusive to the US (where's it's called "Rayman 2 Revolution" and not "Rayman Revolution"), therefore not in Europe/France where Rayman originates from, and so I chose not to care.![]()
The entire concept of region-locking is pure corporate evil with nothing to justify it.Master wrote: Wed Nov 26, 2025 11:02 pm That always did bother me in honesty, why was it region locked?

That's easy, get an oversize 4:3 monitor! Just kidding. They top out at 21", I believe. Short of special markets.Master wrote: Wed Nov 26, 2025 11:02 pmAt any rate, I'm interested in trying out the new GoG version, but I've been spoiled with the widescreen patches at this point, I don't think I could go back to 4:3.
