Rayman Platinum (France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, UK)

Rayman is a side-scrolling platformer developed by UbiSoft Entertainment Montpellier Studios and published by Ubisoft Entertainment. It follows the limbless hero as he travels through six worlds to recover the Great Protoon from Mr Dark and free the Electoons.

This is the European Platinum release, covering the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the Netherlands, and dated 1 August 1997. It was issued as part of Sony’s best-seller range, offering the game at a lower price than the Original. The game is supplied in a Full Jewel PAL case with a Hologram B, with a single disk and English, French and German language options. The EAN barcode is 3362932802020.

Because one pressing covers six countries, this is likely to be the most widely distributed version of the game in PAL territories. It is a sensible target for collectors wanting a clean, complete copy without paying early Original prices.
