Gameplay
Edit
Minigames in Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 are played by entering a mode known as 'Trips', which is divided into five regions of the Earth: USA, Europe, Asia, South America, and Tropics. Each region has 9 minigames, 5 of which are randomly chosen each time the player begins a trip. Completing a trip unlocks those minigames, which can later be played individually through Free Play mode. Additionally, players can use a Trip Customization mode to create their own trips using the available minigames.
Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 features a wide variety of minigames that focus on different themes and utilize different control schemes. In rhythm music games, players use selective instruments (singing, guitar, drum, keyboard, etc.) to perform as part of a Rabbid band. Each minigame can be played with up to four players at once, as either Rabbids or Rayman.Shooting games, which in the first Rayman Raving Rabbids were scattered among the regular levels, have now been moved to a separate area called the Shooting Arcade, where they can be played after completion of Trips.
PlotEdit
In the plot,the Rabbids invade Earth,after conquering Rayman's world,causing trouble in UFOs and yellow,flying submarines.Rayman infiltrates them in a disguise to thwart their plans,as well as having fun.

Darth Vader and Naruto weren't put in the last version, nor in the Japanese version.Octopi are also seen in-game.

StoryEdit
The game starts with Rayman infiltrating a mall overrun by Rabbids. As he's about to sneak in, he disguises himself wearing two socks on his head, a headband, two makeshift eyes, and helium (in order to disguise his voice, thus blending in more with the other Rabbids). He then picks up a soda can and throws it to distract two guard Rabbids (who end up beating each other over their heads, apparently thinking that one of them caused the noise, or simply because they wanted to hurt each other) and steals one of their plungers. Rayman climbs to the roof of the facility and peers through a skylight, where he observes the Rabbids watching a video of humans. Seconds later, one of the Rabbids jerks its head, noticing Rayman's presence. Accidentally, he falls into the mall and is spotted. A Rabbid with split color eyes walks up to him and whips out a European Wii copy of the first Rayman Raving Rabbids game. Taking a look at the cover, it seems to recognize Rayman. Thinking quickly, Rayman screams "DAAAAAAAH!", convincing the Rabbids that he is one of their own. Rayman and the Rabbids are then led into an airborne submarine, taking him to a location for invasion. It is unknown if Rayman Succeeds but he probably gets caught hinted in Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party
Voice Cast Edit
