After the rise of 3D worlds, side-scrolling mascot platformers have become few and far between. Nintendo and Sega have kept the genre alive with inventive titles such as Super Mario Bros. Wonder and Sonic Superstars , and indie titles such as Super Meat Boy have added their own interpretations.

Two of the best and most overlooked entries of the 2010s were Rayman Origins and Rayman Legends , which were Ubisoft’s refreshing takes on the platformer. They were games based on speed, but Ubisoft Montpellier did things differently than Sonic. The games relied on quick-twitch reactions as the title character or his friends navigated levels.
