'''''Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc''''' is the third major game in the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' series]], and the sequel to ''[[Rayman 2: The Great Escape]]''. ''Rayman 3'' was released in 2003. It is notable for being the first ''Rayman'' game not directed by series creator [[Michel Ancel]], who was occupied with the development of ''[[Beyond Good and Evil|Beyond Good & Evil]]'' at the time. Like its immediate predecessor, ~~''Rayman 3''~~ is a 3D platformer. However, ''Rayman 3'''s levels are more straightfoward and oriented towards action and combat rather than platforming and exploration. The main campaign of ''Rayman 3'' is temporally linear – unlike the previous games, where [[Rayman]] could physically return to completed locations, each ''Rayman 3'' level is visited only once within the storyline.
