Jak II

Jak II, (\"Jak II: Renegade\" in Europe and \"Jak and Daxter II\" in Japan), is a science fiction platform game developed by Naughty Dog. Released for the PlayStation 2 game console on October 14, 2003 in North America, October 17, 2003 in Europe and March 11, 2004 in Japan, the game is the sequel to Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy and the second game in the Jak and Daxter series.

The game features new weapons and devices, new playable areas, and a storyline that picks up after the events of The Precursor Legacy. The game\'s plot is much darker than its predecessor\'s, set in Haven City, a dystopia ruled under the questionable fist of Baron Praxis, who is engaged in a war against a techno-organic group of organisms known as the \"Metal Heads\". As in the previous game, the player takes on the dual role of recurring protagonists Jak and Daxter. There are also a new array of characters such as Torn, Erol, Krew, Kor, Ashelin, and Sig, as well as some returning ones, such as Samos and Keira. Jak II is both a sequel and prequel to the first game.
