In the North American release, the cover art is reversible, with the back side featuring a map of Haven City. The front of the game's manual points this map out as a tip to players, but the Greatest Hits re-release of the game did not include this map, with the manual not being updated to reflect this change.

There is a Precursor orb hidden out of bounds underneath the Underport stage that can be collected using a documented hovering glitch with the JET-Board found in both this game and Jak 3, or through the game's debug mode.

There is a glitch whenever Jak walks in front of a mirror that causes a slightly different model of Jak with dark grey horns to appear alongside the "reflected" second model of the room, initially suggesting that Jak was used as a test model for shaping Dark Jak's horns. However, a 2003 promotional contest advertisement hosted by Cartoon Network's programming block Toonami features a higher resolution model of Jak with white horns instead, suggesting that the model sent to Cartoon Network still had the horns on them and they just altered the model for the advertisement, or that Jak was originally supposed to have visible horns like Dark Jak.

During development, early ideas for new eco powers revolved around time manipulation. Although unused in the final version of the game, these eco powers are present in a preview build - Jak would've been able to manipulate time by accelerating it (increasing his movement and firing speed), decelerating it (slowing enemies down), or stopping it altogether.

One mission went completely unused in the final build of the game, having Jak and Torn protect the city wall from a Metal Head invasion. The fight would end with Torn revealing his tatoos symbolize the guards' loyalty to the city.
The mission is present in a preview build of the game, complete with character dialogue and ending cutscene.

Design documents show that the relation between Jak and Mar was to be explored in more depth before the end of the game. In early plot revisions, Jak and Sig would discover Mar was a time traveller who vanished after founding the city.
Mar's time travelling device would've been found in the Underport.

"Construction Site" is a relatively unimportant level in the game, with only a cutscene being played there and little else for the player to do. It is very likely, however, that this level was at one point meant to have a bigger role in the game. The level has a lot of collision at places that are not normally reachable, and there are text entries for unused mission names, including "Climb Construction Site" and "Find Baron at Construction Site"

Sandover Village can be accessed and explored though a glitch in the first cutscene. However, since the area was only meant to be used in said cutscene, the village does not have any characters and the levels Forbidden Jungle, Geyser Rock, Misty Island, Sentinel Beach, and Fire Canyon are inaccessible as there is nothing to call up for these areas.
