The Sega Dreamcast version retains the high quality textures from the PC version, while slightly improving some. A new area has been added in [[the Woods of Light]] called [[Globox Village]], where the player can access new minigames by collecting [[Globox Crystals]]. This is the first version of ''Rayman 2'' to allow for widescreen and the only version where the aspect ratio can manually be changed. [[The Hall of Doors]] has been replaced by [[the Isle of Doors]]. Several more [[Robo-Pirate]]s have been added as well as a new type which shoots bombs. This is also the first version to have the cutscene in [[the Prison Ship]] where [[Rayman]] frees the prisoners, which was cut from the original versions due to time constraints. | The Sega Dreamcast version retains the high quality textures from the PC version, while slightly improving some.
