The level is mostly identical to the original with some graphical enhancements in the phase 1, where now many [[Popolopoï]]s, [[mosquito]]es, and strange [[fish]] can be seen in the environment. Additionally, the [[Henchman 800]] [[Rayman]] must combat in the beginning of phase 1 is of the drilling type, making the battle harder.

Many changes have been applied to this level as far as level design is concerned. Phase 2 and 3 are gone completely, and phase 1 now occurs as phase 2. It has also been significantly altered, and its difficulty increased. The stronghold in which the first [[switch]] is located is larger and guarded by a [[yellow Henchman 800]]. The hole leading to the second [[switch]] is now located inside a building, and guarded by two [[Yellow Henchman 800|yellow Henchmen 800]]. Three more [[Henchman 800|Henchmen]], a [[Purple Henchman 800|purple]] and two [[Green Henchman 800|green]], appear near the [[plum]] after the second [[switch]] has been lit, with two more - a [[Yellow Henchman 800|yellow]] and a [[Red Henchman 800|red]] guarding the ledge above the rope ladders and the [[Gorilla Pirate]]. The misty pond area has been completely removed, and the third [[switch]] is now located in a large multi-storey building with several [[Henchmen 800]] to battle. From this area, an elevator leads [[Rayman]] to the chasm with floating platforms and the fourth [[switch]], which is guarded by a [[Red Henchman 800]].

Phase 1, in this game, is now phase 2 of the original [[The Precipice|Precipice]], requiring [[Rayman]] to climb a sinking tower. Phase 3 is now the phase 2 of [[the Top of the World]], a level omitted from this version. The end of the level now features a [[Ninja Henchman|Ninja Henchmen]] battle as the player must destroy one of two [[generator]]s to reach [[the Lava Sanctuary]]. The original phase 2 and 3 are now found in [[the Precipice]].

The passage that connects to [[the Fairy Glade]] here has been removed: Instead, the same area can be accessed by doing a [[Rain Dance]] on a plant in the second phase of [[The Fairy Glade|the Glade]].

*In ''[[Rayman Activity Centre]]'', there is an activity titled [[The Echoing Caves (Rayman Activity Centre)|the Echoing Caves]]. It does however, seem to have little connection to the ''[[Rayman 2]]'' level and the fact that they share names appears to be a coincidence.

*At the very end of the level, a [[warship]] is seen, possibly in reference to [[the Precipice]] level that follows, where the [[warship]] features heavily. Curiously, in ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'' this area is part of [[the Precipice]]. The [[warship]] does not appear here, most likely due to this.

* The opening cutscene at the start of phase 1 (phase 2 in ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'') shows a [[Red Henchman 800]] enter the caves through the door with four switches. However, no [[red Henchman 800]] is shown inside the caves in any version of the game, despite all versions featuring one at the start of phase 1.
