Online Challenges

The Online Challenges painting.

The Online Challenges are a variety of game modes that feature in Rayman Legends, Rayman Adventures and Rayman Mini. As implied, these challenges require a connection to the internet in order to be accessed. The challenges are hosted on the Uplay servers in all versions of Rayman Legends, with the exception of the PlayStation Vita version, where they are hosted on PlayStation Network.

In Rayman Legends

In Rayman Legends, there are four challenges that can be accessed at any time; the Daily Challenge, the Daily Extreme Challenge, the Weekly Challenge, and the Weekly Extreme Challenge. The Daily Challenges are changed on a daily basis, while the Weekly Challenges remain open for seven days before they are changed. The challenges are changed on Mondays, while on the PlayStation Vita version, they are changed on Thursdays. The main difference between normal and extreme challenges is the goal requirement for timed challenges, and that co-op is not allowed in extreme challenges.

Each challenge has a scoreboard, with scores being divided by cups. The cups from lowest to highest are Bronze, Silver, Gold and Diamond. The diamond cups are the rarest and are only given to the top 1% of the players of the specific challenge. The cup the player has when a challenge concludes determines the amount of points that goes toward the player's Level of Awesomeness. They also contribute Lums to the player's overall Lum count. While the challenges themselves remain the same on all versions, except the PlayStation Vita version, the leaderboards are always platform specific. Ghosts, similarly to ones from the Ghost Mode, can be toggled on or off, or only on for friends. When on, the game will display several ghost versions of other players runs in the challenge with their names displayed above. These can not be interacted with in any way. Gravestones, with the users names above, will also be shown at various places where they died within a challenge.

There are five different areas in which challenges can take place, each based off the rescue levels from the Main Gallery. Although each challenge is randomly generated, there can never be two in the same area or of the same type in the daily or weekly challenges. During early 2016, the Rayman community manager Ubi-Mya organized special challenges every Friday. These challenges combined aspect from several challenges into new ones, such as raising the distance for the Neverending Pit time challenges or having the player collect as many Lums as possible in other locations than the Dojo.

In Rayman Adventures

In Rayman Adventures the challenges were introduced with the Summer Marathon and consists of one daily challenge set in the Land of the Livid Dead. In the level, players compete in an overall score which is calculated from the distance and Lums collected. Prices are given to players depending on their overall position on the leaderboard. By beating three goals in each challenge the player can obtain a Challenge Ticket. These challenges later reappeared randomly as Mini-Marathons.

With version 3.1.0 a new challenge location was added, Desert Kingdom. It reuses the same obstacles and level design as Land of the Livid Dead, but with different assets.

With version 3.4.0 a new challenge location was added, Golden Kingdom. It reuses the same obstacles and level design as Land of the Livid Dead, but with different assets.

In Rayman Mini

In Rayman Mini, Online Challenges appear only as weekly challenges, with two being available at a time. Each challenge has 4 missions, known as feats, which can be completed every day. Completing these will earn the player gems by the end of the challenge, which are used to increase their Level of Awesomeness or obtain new Swag Coins. The player's score in each challenge is determined by the distance and Lums collected. Two of the game's worlds, the River Stream and the Foliage, are available as challenge themes.

The hard difficulty is unlocked at the fourth Level of Awesomeness and the insane difficulty at the seventh Level of Awesomeness. Originally, reaching the tenth Level of Awesomeness granted the player the Golden Teensy, but the 1.4.0 update raised the final Level of Awesomeness to the twentieth level, so now reaching that grants the player the Golden Teensy.
