==Trivia==
* [[Bzzit]] takes the appearance of the Beeskito skin.
* [[Darktoon]]'s appearance is most likely inspired by the red instakill Antitoons from {{rw|Rayman Designer}}, while his purple cape might be a reference to [[Mr Dark]]'s appearance in {{rw|Rayman (Game Boy Color)|the Game Boy Color version of Rayman 1}}.
* The [[Tentacle Flower]]'s colors are probably a reference to the green skin of the [[Livingstone|Livingstones]], who are spat by the boss.
* [[Moskito]] takes the same appearance as the Dark Moskito skin and boss featured in the [[Dark Rayman]] fight. Dark Moskito doesn't change his appearance in that battle, however.
* [[Mr Sax]] and the [[Mad Drummer]]'s colors are probably a reference to the [[Wrong note|Wrong notes]], which [[Mr Sax]] uses to attack. It also resembles some aesthetics from [[Band Land]].
* [[Mr Stone]]'s appearence is a reference to the [[Magma Man|Magma Men]] from {{The Caves of Skops}}, even sharing their pound flame attack.
* [[Space Mama]]'s black colors in her space suit may be a reference to Darth Vader, the red lasers referencing his lightsaber.
* [[Mr Skops]]'s colors could be a reference to the [[Large-mouthed fish]].
* [[The Chessmaster]]'s color is probably a reference to the black pieces in chess, making him resemble more the [[Chess Piece]] enemies.
* [[Mr Dark]] and [[Dark Rayman]]'s colors are a tribute to their appearance in the {{rw|Rayman (Game Boy Color)|the Game Boy Color version of Rayman 1}}.
* If [[Rayman]] uses the [[Dark Rayman|GBC Dark Rayman]] skin during the fight with [[Dark Rayman]], the boss will return to his normal [[Dark Rayman]] appearance.
* [[Mr_Dark#As_Darker_Mr_Dark|Darker Mr Dark]]'s colors might be a reference to his appearance in {{rw|Rayman Junior}}. Prior to version 1.1.0, this hard version of Darker Mr Dark didn't had a unique appearance.

True Boss Rush is the last of the Magician's Challenges in Rayman Redemption. It requires to beat The End of the World and to own 40 Magician tokens to unlock, the last of which is only granted upon completion of the penultimate challenge - Boss Rush.

In this challenge, Rayman must defeat all 21 of the main bosses and sub-bosses of the game, as well as a secret boss acting as a second phase to Darker Mr Dark. The challenge must be completed on a single life, without dying, and the player is given only a single Super power and two Big powers, to replenish Rayman's health and power-up his Fist between fights. All bosses have been recolored to look different, and have had their attack patterns modified to make them significantly harder. This, together with more than doubling the number of battles, makes True Boss Rush a far more difficult challenge than Boss Rush.

Some battles aren't fought in the same order than throughout the main adventure, such as Bzzit being fought before the first Darktoon or Mr Sax being fought before the Mad Drummer. A third form of Mr Dark and additional 22th boss, Darkest Mr Dark, must be defeated as well to complete the challenge. Succeeding will reward Rayman with the SNES skin and the True Hero achievement.
