description Point Blank 2 (PlayStation) Overview

Point Blank 2 is a light gun shooter developed by Namco for the Sony PlayStation, released in arcades in 1998 and on home consoles in 1999. As a sequel to the original Point Blank, the game retains the shooting gallery format consisting of various fast-paced, shooting-based minigames. It was designed for use with the Namco GunCon peripheral and offers competitive and cooperative multiplayer modes. The title targets arcade enthusiasts by retaining the distinctive, cartoonish presentation of its predecessor.

help Point Blank 2 (PlayStation) FAQ

Can Point Blank 2 be played without a GunCon?

The PlayStation version supports Namco's GunCon light gun but also provides standard-controller support. The GunCon is the intended option because its direct aiming recreates the original arcade shooting galleries.

How many shooting stages are in Point Blank 2?

Point Blank 2 contains 70 shooting galleries built around short accuracy, speed, and judgment challenges. Targets range from simple bull's-eyes to moving objects, enemy characters, and stages where shooting the wrong target costs a life.

Does Point Blank 2 have multiplayer or party modes?

Yes, its Party Mode supports competitive play, and two players can shoot simultaneously when compatible controllers are connected. The PlayStation release also includes Arcade, Theme Park, and Training modes.

Will the original PlayStation GunCon work on a modern television?

The original GunCon was designed around the timing behavior of CRT televisions and normally will not track correctly on an LCD or OLED screen. Playing Point Blank 2 with authentic light-gun aiming therefore usually requires a CRT, an original PlayStation, and the appropriate video connection.
