Jet Moto 2 is an extreme hoverbike racing game developed by SingleTrac and released for the PlayStation in 1997. Known for its punishing difficulty and thrilling sense of speed, the game takes players across rugged, multi-tiered tracks ranging from deep canyons to swampy ruins. You race on advanced hoverbikes capable of traversing land, water, and ice, battling aggressive opponents in a true test of off-road reflexes.
How to Play
The goal is to finish first in chaotic off-road races while navigating treacherous terrain. A defining feature of the game is the magnetic grapple systemโenergy poles are placed at sharp turns, and you must hook onto them to swing around corners without losing speed. On standard PlayStation controls, use the D-pad to steer, X to accelerate, and Square to brake. Use the shoulder buttons (L1/R1/L2/R2) to lean your rider and engage the magnetic grapple when near a pole.
Tips
- Master the Grapple: Swinging around grapple poles is mandatory for tight corners. Hold the grapple button as you approach, let the momentum carry you through the turn, and release to slingshot forward.
- Control Your Pitch: In mid-air, use the D-pad (Up/Down) to adjust the pitch of your bike. Landing flat or slightly rear-heavy helps maintain your speed and prevents devastating wipeouts.
- Save Your Boosts: You have a limited number of turbo boosts per lap. Save them for long, flat straightaways or to quickly recover lost momentum after a crash.
