Trivia

* A sequel to this game, entitled Jazz Jackrabbit 3D was to be released sometime in 2000. However, since Epic was unable to find a publisher, the project was cancelled.

* Already completed Jazz Jackrabbit 2 and still can't get enough? Well, the original site is useless, so I suggest you go here instead where you can download heaps of single player levels, battle levels, and tilesets. You can even check out the latest news relating to Jazz.
