A '''keg''' or '''powder keg''' is an explosive barrel of gunpowder found in some [[Robo-Pirate]] strongholds in ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]'' and most of the handheld games that followed. When [[Rayman]] is made to approach a stationary keg, he automatically picks it up; he can then walk about with it. Pressing the ‘jump’ button causes Rayman to toss the keg directly upwards – he can catch it again if he stands still. Pressing the ‘[[magic fist|shoot]]’ button causes Rayman to throw the keg forwards. By throwing kegs in these ways, Rayman can break open doors that are sealed with metal [[sparadraps]], destroy enemies, or break open [[cage]]s that are right above Rayman but out of his reach. If Rayman approaches a flaming torch while carrying a keg, the end of the keg ignites, forcefully sending the keg – and Rayman – hurtling through the air.

~~A '''keg''' or '''powder keg''' is an object that looks like a barrel found~~ in ~~any~~ [[Robo-Pirate ~~Army|pirate~~]] stronghold in ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]'' and most of the handheld games that followed. It is used to break open doors that are sealed with metal [[sparadraps]], break open some [[cage]]s that are right above Rayman but out of his reach, or as a means of airborne transport by setting it alight. Kegs are disposed by some sort of hatches, which have got a variation of the pirate logo on it. A new keg ~~will be dropped~~ by these hatches ~~when~~ the keg is destroyed. ~~Whenever~~ the sparadrap or other obstacle ~~is destroyed~~, ~~they won't drop any~~ more kegs. ~~Sometimes kegs roll~~ down hills in places such as [[the Bayou]]~~, making them an obstacle~~ for [[Rayman]], ~~but when~~ he ~~jumps on them~~, ~~Rayman will bounce on them giving~~ him ~~a higher jump, most times~~ to reach [[~~lum~~]]s.

Kegs are dispensed by trap-doors in walls, which bear the [[Robo-Pirate]] insignia. A new keg is automatically dispensed by one of these hatches each time the keg currently in use is destroyed. When [[Rayman]] has taken care of the [[sparadrap]] or other obstacle, no more kegs will be dispensed. Kegs can occasionally be found rolling down hills or across walkways in places such as [[the Bayou]] or [[the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava]]; in these cases the kegs cannot be used and serve only as obstacles for [[Rayman]]. If Rayman jumps on top of a moving keg, he is bounced high into the air, allowing him to reach [[Lum]]s or high platforms.

Kegs act as obstacles in the race courses of ''[[Rayman M]]'' and ''[[Rayman Rush]]''.

Kegs act as obstacles in the race courses of ''[[Rayman M]]'' and ''[[Rayman Rush]]''. Some courses feature kegs which are composed of metal rather than wood.
