Haven City |
 |
 |
Some areas are missing, the stadium is intact and taken from the Jak II map, the port is larger (also taken from Jak II), the Metal Head city has minor differences in color and design, there is a minor difference in the industrial section and the top left area is wider. In addition, the background is not translucent and the Precursor text (reading "HAVEN CITY") is missing. |
Wasteland |
 |
 |
A number of bridges and rocky areas are missing and there is more land towards the bottom. The colors are lighter and the map has less detail. The Precursor text is in a different place and says "DESERT" instead of "WASTELAND". |
Sewer ("Reach Metal Head area via Sewer" mission) |
 |
 |
A small section of the map is blue instead of yellow. The map is bigger and the background has a different design. The Precursor text says "SEWER KRIMSON GUARD TO METAL HEAD" instead of "SEWER TO METAL HEAD CITY". The text is also curved instead of straight. |
Ruined stadium |
 |
 |
The map is smaller and there is an area and small hill missing. The Precursor text (which says "RUINED STADIUM") is smaller and in a different place. The colors and background are slightly different. |
These maps were changed to their final versions by the time of the August 24 demo.
