The game received generally positive reviews upon release. It has been entirely composed by Jim Dooley. The Castaway says that Jak can be used to undo the damage that was done, by being 'a warrior who proves that Dark Eco can be controlled, or at least managed.' They agree to take on the Aeropans, who plan on using Dark Eco to make themselves the dominant people of the world.Ī soundtrack of the video game, Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier (Original Soundtrack from the Video Game), was released to iTunes on November 3, 2009, and has been received positively. Keira protests saying that Jak isn't a monster, even though Phoenix had seen what Jak was, and she says that if he care for her at all, he would spare Jak. Phoenix further explains that Skyheed spread the dark power to all the Aeropans, who declared him an outlaw and he vowed to destroy all dark warriors, including Jak. He was marooned on Brink Island to hide his work from the Aeropans. In the scuffle, the Castaway took a blow to his head and suffered amnesia. So, he took the only option left and kidnapped the program's chief scientist, the Castaway. When he found out what they were doing, he refused and tried to stop the program, but Skyheed wouldn't hear of it.


He was put in charge of a secret weapons program to make a new kind of warrior. Phoenix reveals that he was once the commander of the Aeropan Air Forces. When they travel to an Old Aeropan Barracks, where they find one of the Coordinates, the Castaway reveals that he is (or once was) a Dark Eco Sage, that he built the facility for the Aeropans. After finding the Light Eco, Daxter is transformed again when Dark Eco is poured into the container he was in.Īfter the Light Eco is inserted into the Seeker, Jak finds out that it is missing three parts, and they travel to the pirate town Fardrop to get the first piece from a pirate. He realizes from the memory of his own experience with it in Jak II that someone has been experimenting with Dark Eco, vowing to destroy those responsible. At the rig, Jak comes across a testing table. The Eco Seeker needs more Light Eco to work and they travel to an old research rig used by the Aeropans. Keira intervenes and makes them call a truce and shake hands. On board Jak and Phoenix argue and tip the Eco Seeker overboard accidentally, so both return to the island once more to retrieve it from a volcanic crater. When Jak and Daxter take off they manage to disable Phoenix's ship and land. After Jak and Daxter get the Power Pod, The Castaway fixes his ship, and later sneaks on board. He also offers to fix Jak's Hellcat, but requires a Velonium Power Pod from the most dangerous robot he created, the Uber-bot 888.

He mentions that he built the Robots on the Island. On the Island the duo meet a Castaway, who knows that Jak has been touched by Dark Eco but can't remember who he was or why he was on the island.

Jak and Daxter chase Phoenix but are led into a trap, resulting in them crash-landing back on the Island again. Then, Captain Phoenix attacks the building and steals both the Eco Seeker and Keira. He becomes black, spiky, and in no mood for 'soft underpants.' Daxter falls into the sewers of Aeropa on the way back, where he becomes tainted further by Dark Eco and is temporarily transformed into 'Dark Daxter'. He is unable to power it because the Eco instability prevents him from using his own Eco powers (along with preventing him from turning into Dark Jak), but Keira is granted permission to study it for a week if Jak proves himself in a test of his fighting skills in the Danger course. Jak is given an instrument called the Eco Seeker. After a successful take-off, Jak must fight off Sky Pirates attacking the ACS Behemoth, an aerial warship captained by Duke Skyheed of Aeropa. After an encounter with Captain Phoenix, an Eco-seeking Sky Pirate, Jak crash-lands on an island at the Brink (the edge of their world) and sets off in search of Eco with which to repair his Hellcat. The game begins with Jak and Daxter, escorting Keira on her journey to become a Sage and help to find the reason for a worldwide Eco shortage.
