After [[Rayman]] escapes from the [[Rabbid]]s and their Colosseum in [[Rayman Raving Rabbids|the previous game]], the [[Rabbid]]s decide to invade [[Earth]], particularly in Paris, France. The event as it was happening was being covered on TV, with [[Rayman]] watching it. He heads to [[Earth]] himself to stop the invasion. [[Rayman]] finds a mall that is taken over by [[Rabbid]]s. To avoid suspicion, [[Rayman]] loosely disguises himself as one of their own. As the hero safely reaches the top of the building, he oversees a herd of [[Rabbid]]s watching clips of [[human]] life. A [[Rabbid]] spots [[Rayman]], surprising him as he falls through an opening into the mall. Surrounded, a [[Rabbid]] with split colour eyes tries to tell if the intruder is [[Rayman]] or not. In order to take away the rising suspicion, [[Rayman]] (who had injected helium earlier to alter his voice) does the [[Rabbid]] scream and the spilt coloured is convinced it is a false alarm. [[Rayman]] is then directed into a flying submarine to a location for [[Rabbid]] invasion. | After [[Rayman]] escapes from the [[Rabbid]]s and their Colosseum in [[Rayman Raving Rabbids|the previous game]], the [[Rabbid]]s decide to invade [[Earth]], particularly in Paris, France.

In the game the player can choose from Trips Mode, score mode, Trips customization or the Plaza. In Trips mode there are 5 different areas to visit. he player then takes part in 5 randomly chosen minigames and a music one as the area's final. In score mode, the player can replay the 45 minigames that have been unlocked in Trips and try to beat the high scores to unlock more [[Rabbid]] costumes. Trips customization lets the player create up to three of their own trips and play them from the Trips menu. Lastly is the Plaza, where the player can view the credits, listen to unlocked music, play some FPS Plunger Shooters and customize [[Rayman]] or the [[Rabbid]]s with more than 110 items of clothing. [[Rayman]] only has 9 costumes while the [[Rabbid]]s have around 50. Also new to this game is the choice of easy mode or normal mode in both Trips and score mode and simultaneous multiplayer in all of the minigames. | In the game the player can choose from Trips Mode, score mode, Trips customization or the Plaza.

A PC port, handled by [[Ubisoft|Ubisoft Bulgaria]], was released in 2008. Gameplay mechanic was simplified, The Plunger Shooters and minigames with too complicated Wii control were removed, and the actions of the Wii Remote are substituted for mouse movements, keyboard directional keys or controller buttons. Appearance customization was changed to a selection of a choice of five characters ([[Rayman]] and four [[Rabbid]]s wearing different outfits). The number of playable games has been reduced to 16. | |||
In Poland, the game was originally released by Komputer Świat Gry, split into 4 parts, each on its own CD containing 4 of the 16 minigames. The discs were color-coded to match the internal grouping of the games. A manual describing gameplay and installation process was included with each disc. Later, an edition with all 16 games has been released. | |||
The Russian version was published by Buka (Бука) and contains all 16 games on one disc. It is available as a stand-alone release as well as a "Premium Games" bundle with ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'' and ''[[Rabbids Go Home]]''. | |||
The promotional disc from Cheese Heads (food product) included 4 minigames, although all 16 could still be accessed by launching the game with different launch arguments. A version with multiple languages (English, French, German, Italian and Spanish) which contained all 16 minigames was also released. | |||
===Gameplay=== | |||
Like the Wii version, the game takes place in a shopping mall, but the number of options has been reduced. Instead of trips and trip customization, there is an arcade machine through which the games are played, a karaoke machine for configuring the game options and a bulletin board for the credits. | |||
The player can choose a character to play with and a control method (mouse, keyboard or gamepad). When connecting two or more gamepads, a multiplayer mode of up to four players is possible. All characters are identical in terms of control and behavior, just their appearance varies. | |||
The minigames are not grouped by geographical region as in the Wii version, but are split, seemingly arbitrarily, into four sections - blue, green, red and orange, of four games each. The premise of each game is largely identical to the Wii version. The goal is to get an entry on the high score table, beating the original scores of [[Globox]] (12000 points), [[Betilla]] (8000 points) and [[Murfy]] (4000 points). Any place on the table earns a trophy. Gold, silver and bronze medals are awarded to the first, second and third places, respectively. There are no cumulative scores, and no unlockable achievements. | |||

==Trivia== | |||
* Page 5 of the manual for the US Wii release of ''Rayman Raving Rabbids 2'' features a screenshot of the main menu from an earlier build of the game. The screenshot has several debug cheats that the player is meant to enter using the Wii Remote's D-Pad, along with summaries of what each cheat code was meant to do. However, none of these codes work in the final game. | |||
