Rayman 3 HD is a high-definition[1] remake of Rayman 3. It was released on the PlayStation Network for PlayStation 3 and the Xbox Live Arcade for Xbox 360 on the 21st March, 2012. Rayman 3 HD features minor enhancements to visuals, such as a remade HUD, and makes a few changes in numerous areas.
It was announced on 9th November 2015 that Rayman 3 HD would be among the first group of titles that were to be Xbox One backward compatible.[2] This version was updated with a new logo and fixed minor graphical glitches.
Differences from Rayman 3
- The Hoodlum Havoc subtitle has been removed, and the font of the logo has been changed to match that of Rayman Origins.
- The game now features subtitles for the cutscenes and some other in-game dialogue.
- The original version opened with a gameplay trailer cut to Groove Armada's 'Madder'. This has been removed and replaced with a new trailer featuring new music.
- The intro sequence originally began with the classic Ubi Soft logo, used for the first three Rayman games, overlaid against a night sky. This has been cut.
- Rayman 3 HD features audio problems. Many music tracks start later than they should, and often contain glitches.
- In the Fairy Council, a Ludiv originally spoke the line 'Oh my God, what is going on here?' In Rayman 3 HD, this line is censored to 'What is going on here?' However, the words 'Oh my God' seen in the Crush minigame remain uncensored.
- Parts of the sky above the Clearleaf Forest have become black, and the colour of the water has undergone strange changes. The reasons for such discolourings are currently unknown.
- The bonus section of the game contains an "extra" which is a gallery of the artworks seen in the Rayman Origins art booklet which came with the collector's edition.
- The shadows of objects and characters have been known to glitch up, often passing directly through surfaces and appearing/disappearing at random. The shadows also sometimes aren't cast according to the location of the light source, and instead appear directly beneath the caster. This is likely due to a lack of testing when experimenting with the newer shading technology.
- The jewels and Red Lums now cast light onto the geometry around them, as opposed to the original version, where only a glowing texture was placed around them.
- The Grand Minimus's crown is now transparent.
