Shadow Plain is a dark and simple square-shaped map that is generally rather open and located in the haunted areas from the Glade of Dreams, probably near the the Tomb of the Ancients in Rayman 2, as its visual presentation suggests. It is surrounded by deformed and broken metal fences with skull symbols and sharp edges with mountain walls on the left side, higher levels of land in the right side, thorn tentacles, tall and naked trees and grass. The front side of the map features a large metal skull expelling a green toxic gas from the eyes. On the opposite side, there is a closed metal gate, showing an opened grassy area with some groups of thorn tentacles. The cardo road that connects the gate to the skull is carved with spooky symbols like bats, tombs and skulls. There is a road made of bones that connects the centre of the battle arena to a closed gate in the right side. The sky is covered with purple and pink-coloured clouds. There are small walls also carved with spooky symbols that set slightly away from the corners of the single-room map (high enough to hide a player running behind them) and on top of two of these will appear Generators in Lum Fight. The centre is formed by paths that link like a plus sign resembling the Roman floor plans, and the middle also features a Gold Generator. The centre is also formed like a square, and the remaining area contains squared holes with toxic gas in the ground--four in each corner--and each contain a standard Generator, making at total seven Generators available in the Lum Fight battle mode of Rayman M (one Gold Generator and 6 standard Generators). In the Capture the Fly battle mode, the idle location from the Light Fly is in the centre of the map.

The battle arena features some changes in Rayman Arena:

The sky is the same, but there's a visible full moon.
In one of the tall and naked trees, there is an architectural element.
There is fog in the entire map.
The toxic gas doesn't exist in the four squared holes.
The metal skull expels a blue gas from its eyes.
The metal fences are more simplified. These are slightly bent, thicker and these not contain spooky symbols.
The road made of bones and the east-gate don't exist.
Ghost spirits of Zombie Chickens can be seen wandering around the surroundings.
In the cardo road, if the player turns to south he/she can see a big hole instead of a plain.
The bent walls friezes are slightly different.
The east side of the map is predominantly surrounded by metal fences. There's another architectural element seen.
