A '''keg''' or '''powder keg''' is an explosive barrel of gunpowder found in some [[Robo-Pirate]] strongholds in ''[[Rayman 2]]'' 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 [[sparadrap]]s, 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.

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.
