Can't help but feel that this sounds like the Transition from Jak & Daxter to the Darker Jak 2. Like you're grabbing that bull by the horns. Interesting stuff, Josh! Thanks for sharing~

This track was only used in a Japanese trailer: https://youtu.be/ScFkGwfEHKs?t=167

@jp8k: Andrew: that's one of my favourite missions of any game!

@user-726535428: I'd say there are roughly 20 unused demos from CB (mostly from CB1) and it's hard to say regarding J&D... a few from the 1st and 3rd games and about an hour+ from JD2. There was quite a lot of experimentation in terms of working out the interactive element.

This was used in so many pre-gameplay and trailers for Jak II, i wonder why it got cut. Would you perhaps have anymore deleted track Josh? The trailers and gameplays have alot more that we never heard off.

I hear those Roland French Horns! Iconic.

Jak II: Renegade - Action Jak (demo)
