Rayman Legends [NS, Stad, PC, PS3, PS4, Vita, Wii U, XB360, XBO] – Moskito, Globox / Enemies

Media: video game: “Rayman Legends”
Developer: Ubisoft Montpellier
Platform: Computer, Google Stadia, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Wii U, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, Xbox 360, Xbox One

Description: 

The Hi-Ho Moskito! level in the Jibberish Jungle painting is one of the Back to Origins series of levels, which are unlocked through Lucky Tickets in-game.

In the beginning of the level, a Moskito will join the player character and act as a mount. Aside from shooting bullets, it is able to inhale enemies into its proboscis, potentially holding them inside indefinitely, and shoot them back out as stronger projectiles.

If playing as Globox, a smaller Moskito joins him and carries him instead, effectively making him the mount. In an identical way, Globox can suck enemies into his mouth and spit them back out.

Enemies in the level that can be sucked up include small flies, big flies, human hunters and the goblin-like Lividstones. The Moskito mounts also appear in various other Back to Origins levels, such as the Shooting Me Softly level in the Desert of Dijiridoos painting, where most of the enemies are birds; Aim for the Eel! level in Gourmand Land, where most of the enemies are lizards; and in the Fire When Wetty level in Sea of Serendipity, where most of the enemies are fish.
