'''''Rayman Raving Rabbids 2''''' is the sequel to the spin-off series ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]''.  It was released in 2007 on the Nintendo Wii and the Nintendo DS. It is followed by ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party]]'' in 2008, ''[[Rabbids Go Home]]'' in 2009, and ''[[Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time]]'' in 2010.

After [[Rayman]] escapes from the [[Rabbid]]s and their Colosseum in [[Rayman Raving Rabbids|the previous game]], the [[Rabbid]]s decide to invade [[Earth]], particularly in Paris, France. The event as it was happening was being covered on TV, with [[Rayman]] watching it. He heads to [[Earth]] himself to stop the invasion. [[Rayman]] finds a mall that is taken over by [[Rabbid]]s. To avoid suspicion, [[Rayman]] loosely disguises himself as one of their own. As the hero safely reaches the top of the building, he oversees a herd of [[Rabbid]]s watching clips of [[human]] life. A [[Rabbid]] spots [[Rayman]], surprising him as he falls through an opening into the mall. Surrounded, a [[Rabbid]] with split colour eyes tries to tell if the intruder is [[Rayman]] or not. In order to take away the rising suspicion, [[Rayman]] (who had injected helium earlier to alter his voice) does the [[Rabbid]] scream and the spilt coloured is convinced it's a false alarm. [[Rayman]] is then directed into a flying submarine to a location for [[Rabbid]] invasion.

After [[Rayman]] completes all of the minigames, a [[Rabbid]] is seen guiding a submarine as it is parking. Later, a notice was taped onto the submarine, as the area they parked at was a no-parking-zone. [[Rayman]] is then seen back inside of his house, watching sports on TV. Out of nowhere, the channel changes to a [[Rabbid]] show. [[Rayman]] turns it back to the football game, but it changes into a different [[Rabbid]] show. With growing frustration, [[Rayman]] still finds a [[Rabbid]] show. Angered, he throws the remote through the TV, destroying it. The TV shakes and rattles with a blue screen, then several [[Rabbid]]s appear after the TV is completely destroyed. The group of [[Rabbid]]s, except for one that encounters a vacuum, chase [[Rayman]] out of his house.

The main setting in the game is the shopping mall the [[Rabbid]]s have taken over. From there the player can go do Trips, listen to music unlocked in minigames, customize [[Rayman]] and the [[Rabbid]]s, and make a customized trip.

 

This game features [[Rayman]] and the [[Rabbid]]s. Compared to [[Rayman Raving Rabbids|the previous game]], the game focuses more on the [[Rabbid]]s and less on [[Rayman]]. In this game, [[Rayman]] acts like a [[Rabbid]] in order to keep himself unnoticed. The [[Rabbid]]s are now more [[human]] like than they were in ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]'', doing [[human]] things and even having their own crazy way of speech.

In the game the player can choose from Trips Mode, Score Mode, Trips customization or the Plaza. In Trips mode there are 5 different areas to visit. he player then takes part in 5 randomly chosen minigames and a music one as the area's final. In Score Mode, the player can replay the 45 minigames that have been unlocked in Trips and try to beat the high scores to unlock more [[Rabbid]] costumes. Trips customization lets the player create up to three of their own trips and play them from the Trips menu. Lastly is the Plaza, where the player can view the credits, listen to unlocked music, play some FPS Plunger Shooters and customize [[Rayman]] or the [[Rabbid]]s with more than 110 items of clothing. [[Rayman]] only has 9 costumes while the [[Rabbid]]s have around 50. Also new to this game is the choose of easy mode or normal mode in both Trips and Score and simultaneous multiplayer in all of the minigames.

The Plunger Shooters (previously known as Bunny Hunts) are different from ''[[Rayman Raving Rabbids]]''. Instead of polygon made worlds, they now take place in real world locations. The controls of how to use the [[plunger]]s are different, and the grapple ability is removed.

The music stages have changed too. Instead of dancing to the music, the player now plays it. The player can choose from 4 different instruments and instead of [[Rabbid]]s coming from the sides of the stage, it's now Wii Remote and Nunchuck symbols coming down from the top of the screen and when they get to the templates at the bottom of the screen, the player must strike down whichever controller the symbol is of at the moment needed to score points. Nunchuck symbols are always at the left and Wii Remote symbols are always at the right. At certain times it will tell the player to either move the Nunchuck and Wii Remote up and down, swing the Wii Remote like a lasso or swing the Nunchuck like a lasso.

In all Score Mode minigames the player must get more than 12000 points in normal mode to get the trophy and unlock a [[Rabbid]] costume. In all Trips the player must beat a total of 72000 points to get the trophy and unlock a [[Rabbid]] costume. On the highscores of each Score Mode minigame, [[Globox]] always has 12000 points, [[Betilla]] always has 9000 points and [[Murfy]] always has 6000 points. On the highscores of each Trip, [[Globox]] always has 72000 points, [[Betilla]] always has 54000 points and [[Murfy]] always has 36000 points.

''"As many of the team made [[Rayman 1|the original ''Rayman'']], we were a little worried that fans were expecting a huge fantastical adventure that the [[Rayman (series)|''Rayman'' games]] are so famous for, but we felt it was time to really have some fun an innovate. We hope the end result even if a little different, still puts a smile on their faces"''

''"[[Rayman]] has always faced enemies with a big presence and he is back to once again help the real world rid themselves of the [[Rabbid]]s!"''

''"...stop the [[rabbid]]s that are spreading insanity all over the world and save your best mate, [[Globox]]. In the arcade mode, [[Rayman]] will be one of the numerous playable characters amoung the [[Rabbid]]s..."''

''"...we have re-designed the first person [[plunger]] shooting with something very unique and the [[Rabbid]]s have also joined a rock band!"''

At the end of each minigame and trip, there is an icon for Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. If the player has internet connection for their Wii, they can send their score to www.ravingrabbids2.com. The player can then compare their score with those of other players and try to beat them. Top 3 players in the world are listed in each minigame section. Since an unknown date, this feature no longer works.
