Olympus Maximus

The Dark Creatures Rise is the second level of Olympus Maximus, the fifth world in Rayman Legends. It introduces the Fiery Depths area of Olympus Maximus and the groups of dangerous dark creatures.

Area 1

In a volcanic area filled with bodies of lava, Rayman and the team advance forward. They find angry dark creatures that are hungry to bite the heroes. There's too many to defeat with a punch, so the heroes must run away from them. The first secret area is located behind a fake, dark wall. Devilbobs appear as the heroes continue on. The second secret area can be found by avoiding a different group of dark creatures and using the wall run. After dodging more dark creatures, the team finds a fireworks mushroom near another group. Hitting it will create a light strong enough to kill the dark creatures. Shortly after using the wall run several times, the door leading up to the exit is nearby as well as the second Skull Coin.

Invaded

This level is invaded by enemies from 20,000 Lums Under the Sea. It features lasers, Underwater Toads and mines.

It is unlocked once the original level completed and if the player goes far enough in 20,000 Lums Under the Sea.

This level is the beginning of the temple section from the original level. However, due to the invaders' presence, most of the level is flooded by a green-coloured water in which the player(s) must dive.

The beginning of the level features the deadly lasers from the end of Mansion of the Deep. Like in this level, the players must get between those lasers. The end of the level features underwater mines and currents.

Music

Unlike the other invaded levels from Olympus Maximus, the music played in this level is the slower version of Laser Mayhem. This is the only invasion level with this music, and the only invasion level to have different music to the rest of the invasion levels in a world.
