Description

After saving Haven City once again, Jak and Daxter find themselves poisoned forced into competition on the international car-racing circuit by the execution of Krew's will.

Featuring over a dozen customizable vehicles designed with unique handling characteristics, players will race through 20 tracks in eight different terrain arenas. With an assortment of power-ups available, including projectile weapons, mines, ranged weapons, turbo boosts, shields, and smart bombs, players should have the means necessary to ensure they're the first to cross the finish line.

The game supported both offline and online multiplayer. Offline multiplayer is the typical two-player split-screen multiplayer. Online multiplayer was playable with up to five other players. Both modes featured the same game types, which are the same as the single player except that human players are replacing the AI. The online servers for the game have now been closed.

Trivia

Relationships

From the beginning of the series, it has been obvious that Jak and Kiera have some sort of relationship. However, in the previous game, Jak 3, it was changed so that Jak and Ashelin had some sort of attraction, while she and Torn were together in Jak II: Renegade. In Jak X, both couple have changed back. In one of the cut-scenes, a screenshot depicting both women acting aggressively towards each other, with Jak helplessly caught between them, can be seen.
