Those itching for a new Jak & Daxter probably won’t have their enthusiasm sated by Sony’s emulated PS5 and PS4 re-release of Jak & Daxter: The Lost Frontier – but it can’t hurt, huh? The game, originally released in 2009 by High Impact Games, was first conceived by Naughty Dog, but due to its focus on Uncharted: Drake’s Fortunate at the time, it handed the project off.
When it eventually released, it generally received muted reviews. While the reception wasn’t bad per se, it never really lived up to the original trilogy, and it actually represents the final release in the franchise thus far. This re-release is likely to be an emulated version of the PSP game, although the title did also deploy on the PS2 originally as well.
As with the vast majority of Sony’s PS Plus Premium ports, you can expect quality of life features like save states, rewind, and video filters – as well as Trophies, which have been a fairly consistent feature in emulated first-party titles since the platform holder introduced this initiative. But will you be going on an another adventure with Jak, Daxter, Keira, and crew? Take off in the comments section below.

Just need that sweet sweet Daxter now
@IndoorEnthusiast Right! Daxter with trophies 🤤 Daxter is so good, It must drop as well, sooner or later! But this game, not so sure about it. I remember playing it for a hour and already giving up on it 😮💨
‘Uncharted: Drake’s Fortunate’? Not played that one! 😁
I’m glad ratchet has seen some love in recent years but it’s definitely time we got some new Jak and Sly.
@Dodoo i mean they're not wrong though, Drake is very fortunate to survive some of the situations he gets himself in! 🤣
@Dodoo I didn't like the darker direction they took with the sequel "Uncharted: Drake's Unfortunate"
@Dodoo
Yeah Sly is still stuck in Egypt he’ll become a raccoomummy by the time he gets a game.
Was looking forward to his film and tv show both of which got cancelled sadly.
He needs a current gen trilogy remaster
@Gremio108 @JonnyAces love that! 🤣
@Dragoon1994 yeah a current gen trilogy remaster would be sweet and remakes would be even better. Here’s hoping!
@Dodoo
Either would be great.
Just hope for a Sly 5 before Sly dies of old age or becomes a raccoomummy
Now give me sly cooper collection.and a resistance collection.word up son
Well it'll be a new Jak game to me, so I'm looking forward to playing it. Not expecting it to be as good as the trilogy, but I expect I'll have a good time.
I loved original Jak trilogy but never played this…so it will be a nostalgia kick…This generation has let down platform fans big time…just crazy how Jak Sly and Spyro franchises are being left to rot…only Sonic and Ratchet have kept the flag flying
Undoubtedly the worst game in the series....
I only played a little bit of Lost Frontier on the PS2 years ago.
It's not a terrible game like a lot of people say, but it's just not the greatest Jak game.
I'll definitely platinum this. Just need Daxter and Secret Agent Clank now.
Proper remasters of the original trilogy would also be nice. And Sly. Also every Silent Hill. Digital Devil Saga? Psychonauts 1!
But this is cool.
I wish this remained forgotten and we got Daxter instead.
But WHEN???? No date???
@Slug_full_of_metal It will be available on Tuesday. 😃
Has Push Square reached out to PlayStation about the lack of PS2 games added to Premium?
I would love to know whats up with it because were closing in on 2 years of Premium and so far zero PS2 games have been added. This game will be the PSP version as well.
They just threw those limited PS2 to PS4 games in at launch from years ago , didnt even give them a PS5 version like all other classics and left it at that.
They need to put the Daxter game on there
@Dodoo no remakes please
