Rayman 6: DJ Trouble

Rayman 6: DJ Trouble is a an upcoming 3D platform game developed for Ubisoft by Rayman Fans. Released for the Xbox One X, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. This game wouldn't have been possible if the people responsible for its creation didn't have any fans helping out with it, including someone who goes by Mr. Hubble for most of the game's ideas.

Plot

The Residents of the Glade of Dreams want to celebrate the fame of Rayman and his Team. But filled with envy is a particular type of enemy that we haven't seen with Rayman in a very long time: Rabbids. The Rabbids were so upset for not being invited to Rayman's DJ Celebration that they teamed up with the Nightmare Enemies across the Glade of Dreams to crash it. Now, it's up to the team to save the many residents of the Glade of Dreams including the Baby Globoxes Rayman didn't save in Rayman's Raving Rabbids, and to find the stuff for the party that have been swiped by the enemies and scattered across the Glade of Dreams.

Gameplay

Due to being made years later after Rayman 4 & 5, it uses Level Mechanics from Rayman Origins & Rayman Legends. Not to mention involving 4 Player Mode with Globox, Teensies & Barbara as playable characters. The most common enemies in this title are Rabbids, as they're the only enemies found in each stage. Every way of collecting Lums from Rayman Origins & Rayman Legends is present in this title. But unlike those two games, not every enemy is always defeated in one single hit.

Playable Characters

• Rayman: Since Rayman's hands and feet are connected to him magically, he doesn't need limbs to move them. That means he has far more attack range than any of the other playable characters. There are even Power-Ups built exclusively for Raypeople like him he can use including (but not limited to) the ones from Rayman 3.

• Globox: Gains abilies from Magic Food & Drinks; especially if it heals players.
• King Teensy: Every Purple Lum gets pulled towards him, which is perfect for not messing up Lum Chains.
• Goth Teensy: In order to be different from King Teensy, he changed his abilities so that when he defeats an enemy, it won't instantly pop after it becomes Bubblized. It's perfect for earning extra Lums in a level that has a lack of them.
• Barbara: Her axe is so powerful, it will silence anyone who dares to harm Rayman and his teammates including Barbara herself in any way. Seriously, if you're dealing with too many enemies, or if an enemy is too powerful, she can kill any and all of them in an instant.
• Friendly Rabbid:

Types of Levels

• Hub Levels: The big open world levels where you have to complete other levels to unlock more of this one.
• Normal Levels: You play as Normal: Collect as many Lums as you can and save the Teensies like you did in Rayman Legends.
• Murphy Levels: Acting Exactly like he did in Rayman Legends, he now pops those Lum Bubbles from Rayman Origins like you can on the PlayStation Vita Version of Rayman Origins.
• Shooting Levels: The Bunny Hunt Minigame from the Rayman's Raving Rabbids Series returns as a level type here. Not to mention that it is now mixed with Mosquito Sections from Rayman Origins. And just like in Rayman's Raving Rabbids 1, you need to complete these to save the Baby Globoxes.
• Racing Levels: The Racing Minigame from Rayman's Raving Rabbids 1 returns as a level type here too. You're now able to collect Lums in these levels, which will increase your speed up to 10%, not that there's a maximum amount of Lums you can collect in these. Just don't lose any speed by getting hit by anything dangerous.
• Tricky Treasure Levels: Mister Death has lost his Skull Teeth again, so you have to go through all 10 of these types of levels to get them back to enter the Land of the Livid Dead.
• Music Levels: If you complete every other level in a Hub Level, you unlock this this type of level in said Hub Level.

Enemies

Stage 1: Plains of Thought

• Rabbid: As the Game's Main Enemy, there are many types of it, and it will act in different ways. They appear in every stage of the game.

• Lividstone: Maintaining its behavior from Rayman Origins, its simple and easy to defeat. But their Medieval Counterparts are now driven crazy by frontal attacks including Rayman's Punches just like their normal counterparts were in Rayman 1.
• Little Lividstone: Unlike its older taller counterpart, it will dodge a simple normal frontal attack. Not to mention it's more aggressive.
• Psychlops: If you get too close without attacking it quick enough, it will be startled, causing it to deploy its spikes on instinct.
• Psychlopes: Basically a double sized Psychlops.

• Carnivorous Liana: You can grab its tongue for it to pull you up to higher places. Just don't hold on for too long or else it'll eat you.
• Puppy Poppy: It may look cute, but once you get close, they cue their attack by turning angry and inverting its colors. Not to mention it's completely immune to your normal attacks.

• Spiky Flower: If a group of these are blocking the way, just hit their bulb and they'll be out of there faster than you can say, "Rayman's Raving Rabbids."
• Small Fly: They appear in Mosquito Sections. If you defeat an entire row of these, you earn Lums based on how many there were. For example, if the row had 5, you'd earn 5 Lums.
• Big Fly: Appearing in Mosquito Sections, they take multiple hits and shoot at players.
• Francky: A Huge Monster from Rayman Legends that sometimes defends itself withca spiked shield and a mace. It's a good thing Murphy is in this game to make him easier to attack with his tickling. Otherwise, this would be a pay to win game.

• Chiclick: A regular blue baby chicken with only the primary wing parts and a lighter blue beak. It will rest somewhere nearby, then spring into the air when a player arrives.

• Chiclicken: A grown up Chiclick with a matching beak color, yet had black feathers and a turquoise wattle and comb. Only difference in behavior from its younger relatives is that it chases after players in attempt to fly into them.

Stage 2: Band Desert

• Rabbid: As the Game's Main Enemy, there are many types of it, and it will act in different ways. They appear in every stage of the game.
• Small Bird: Acts similar to the Psychlops.
• Blow Bird: Although it only harms those too close to it, its airstreams are strong enough to push the players into dangerous cliffs, spiky birds or other enemies.
• Spiky Bird: I wouldn't say this guy is evil. Just someone you should avoid touching like, entirely.
• Cymbals: Unless you're on its hollow centre or out of its mouth, I guarantee it will crush you.

• Moth: It freely wanders on its platform, turning backwards when they face an obstacle. When a player is in sight, they usually start flying and try to kick it. They can dodge normal attacks in the air, but they can also duck to avoid it on the ground, which is an opportunity for them to give players a headbutt. Thus, they are hard to touch and proficient in counterattacks.
• Little Flying Moth: Acts like a Little Fly.

• Large-Mouthed Fish: They swim back and forth and try to bite players when they're is in sight. It is recommended to duck, but it is however possible, with perfect timing, to attack them when they jump.
• Piranha: It repeatedly hops out of the water in hopes of getting the players.
• Jellyfish: It doesn't actually try to attack the players, as it just swims in patterns with groups instead. Just try not to touch them, obviously.

• Swordfish: If you're within it's line of attack, it will charge at you. Its sharp point will cause it to get stuck allowing it to be easily defeated.
• Murray: It's too big to be defeated. If it chases you, the best strategy might be to run and/or swim away.
• Spiky Fish: Back from Rayman 1, it's now basically an underwater version of the Spiky Bird.
• Little Fry Fish: Acts like a Little Fly.
• Big Fry Fish: Acts like a Big Fly.

• Spiky Flower: If a group of these are blocking the way, just hit their bulb and they'll be out of there faster than you can say, "Rayman's Raving Rabbids."
• Spiky Plant Platform: Unlike Normal Plant Platforms, you can't get on top of a Spiky one from underneath or else you will obviously get impaled.
• Carnivorous Liana: You can grab its tongue for it to pull you up to higher places. Just don't hold on for too long or else it'll eat you.

When doing so, it does not duck to avoid Normal Attacks.
