PlayStation 2 version: Since this version of the Precipice contains the keg-flying part of the Echoing Caves, it's worth noting on this page that the Fairy Glade passage does not exist. That much is already mentioned on the Echoing Caves page, but it's kind of obvious there since that part doesn't even exist in Revolution's Echoing Caves anyway, it's been moved here.

===Phase 1===
===Phase 1===
This level takes place in a wide canyon, where [[Rayman]] is in pursuit by the [[Robo-Pirate]]s shooting [[helicopter bomb]]s and [[Red shell|red walking shells]] at him. He has to escape them by running across a weak pier, climbing on nets, and jump whenever bits of it are blasted off.

===Phase 3===
===Phase 3===
[[Rayman]] comes out somewhere else in the canyon, and is still in pursuit across wooden piers. There is then a cave with a bottomless pit, which [[Rayman]] has to glide through until he lands on another pier. At the end of this, he ends up on a [[Robo-Pirate|pirate]] stronghold which was built over a cliff, still under attack by a [[Ninja Henchman]] and [[helicopter bomb]]s. Notably, these [[Helicopter bomb|bombs]] can hit the [[Ninja Henchman]], inflicting him 5 damage (one third of its [[resistance]]). Once [[Ninja Henchman|the pirate]] is defeated, [[Rayman]] can exit after freeing the [[Teensie]].

This version plays out as part of a large mission to destroy 2 [[generator]]s to enter [[the Lava Sanctuary]]. It has had many alterations made, based around the fact that it now has 4 phases. Phase 2 has been removed and now features as phase 1 of [[the Echoing Caves]]. Phase 3 has become phase 2 accordingly, but the level now features phases 2 and 3 of the original [[The Echoing Caves|Echoing Caves]] as phases 3 and 4, concluding with a [[Ninja Henchman]] battle as the player attempts to destroy the [[Generator room|generator]].

The phase which, in the original Echoing Caves, included the passage to [[The Fairy Glade]] has had that passage removed, as that part of the Fairy Glade is instead accessible with the [[Rain Mask]].
