Is it still worth playing?

A hack and slash action game developed and published by Konami for the PlayStation 2 in 2003, the sequel to Zone of the Enders, with mecha combat in which you again control the Orbital Frame Jehuty. The story is set two years after the first game and follows Dingo Egret, who is forced to pilot Jehuty to defeat the military organization BAHRAM. It has a new director, Shuyo Murata, appointed by the producer Hideo Kojima with more action than the first game. Jehuty can attack several enemies at once and grab objects to use as weapons. The levels are linear stages rather than the first game's world map, and you repair Jehuty with Metatron, level up by destroying enemies and collect sub weapons from bosses. Fast, furious fights in short stages still make it a game to replay for better ranks.
