The Eco timed power-up gameplay from the previous game has been removed, and introduction of weapons such as the Morph Gun, a multipurpose firearm, adds a greater emphasis on enemy combat. However, it is significantly different in some areas. The core gameplay of Jak II remains somewhat similar to that of the previous game, with a recurring reliance on platforming challenges and vehicle usage. Some criticism, however, was directed at the checkpoint systems, darker tone, and high difficulty. Critics applauded the game for being very polished in nearly every department, with many agreeing it was one of the best PlayStation 2 games released at the time. Jak II received critical acclaim upon release. The player takes on the dual role of protagonists Jak and Daxter.

The game features new weapons and devices, new playable areas, and a storyline that picks up after the events of Jak And Daxter: The Precursor Legacy. It was followed by Jak 3 the following year in 2004.
