Collector interest
A racing and vehicular-combat spin-off of Naughty Dog's Jak series, transposing its characters into armed arenas and tracks. Still fairly widespread in the West, its interest lies in this brisk kart spin-off of a well-liked line rather than scarcity. An accessible piece for saga fans wanting to complete its iterations on the console.
Better with friends
An explosive blend of racing and combat where you pilot machines armed to the teeth to tear each other up on trap-laden circuits. The competition mixes driving and trigger: aiming true while holding your line makes all the difference in the surrounding chaos. Spectacular and snappy, it turns every race into a hilarious battle where missiles and slides decide always-unpredictable finishes.
Is Jak X - Combat Racing still worth playing in 2026?
Released in 2005 on PS2 under the full title Jak X - Combat Racing, Naughty Dog's spin off transposes the Jak universe into motorised arenas where every vehicle bristles with weapons. The nervous driving, the Eco management to recharge the arsenal and the tournament focused modes recall both vehicular combat and arcade racing. The rock soundtrack and the staging keep the series energy. Without the platforming finesse of the main entries, the package shines mainly for its local multiplayer and its bite. Recommended for fans of weaponised racing and for Jak followers curious about this spin off.
