Rayman Legends Definitive Edition

When Rayman Legends Definitive Edition came to Switch, its performance wasn’t in the best shape. Fortunately, Ubisoft has been working on the game since and has released a patch. A new update just went live this week.

The new Rayman Legends Definitive Edition specifically addresses the game’s performance. According to Ubisoft, it “reduces loading times between levels and fixes frame rate-related issues as well.”

Digital Foundry published yet another technical analysis today. With Rayman Legends Definitive Edition releasing on Switch today, the outlet has taken a look at how the game performs. There are some surprising finds here.

To begin, Rayman Legends Definitive Edition runs at 1080p while docked. It mostly runs at 60 frames per second, but a few dips may pop up occasionally. Strangely, the frame rate issues seem to be sorted out after you’ve died once in a level.

A demo for Rayman Legends Definitive Edition went up for a brief time on the European Switch eShop a few days ago. Ubisoft eventually pulled it, but you have to wonder how it went up in the first place.

A representative told Eurogamer that the demo “was an early version of the game, which doesn’t include the latest Switch developments and not a representation of the final product”. Further added is that the demo “was an error”.

The full statement reads:

“We’re aware that Rayman Legends Definitive Edition went live for a short time on the Nintendo eShop. This was an early version of the game, which doesn’t include the latest Switch developments and not a representation of the final product – this was an error which is why it has been taken down. As mentioned in yesterday’s launch announcement, a free demo will be launched this summer ahead of the game’s launch on September 12th.”

The early version of the Rayman Legends Definitive Edition demo had some issues when playing docked. When it returns, it should run much more smoothly.
