In Knack 2, you upgrade Knack by finding 100 Treasure Chests, that give you a Relic or Crystal Part, which can be used to make Knack stronger. These are actually optional- but they give you so many abilities that you are encouraged to hunt them down- their contents are randomized, but their location never changes, so you are encouraged to farm them if you have to until you get what you want.

That apart, to upgrade Knack, you need to find enough Relic energy to fill one meter- you will have to first unlock the Way of Speed skills before you are allowed to move on to other branches. Way of Speed will be unlocked automatically while playing the game.

There is one last way of upgrading skills in Knack 2– as you are playing the game, you my see several non-aggressive creatures (mostly ladybugs). These guys are harmless- but attack them anyway, because they contain a bit of Relic energy- which can be useful for upgrading too.

Knack 2 has a lot of collectibles- treasure chests, gadget parts, super moves, and more. Thre’s a lot for you to hunt down- in fact, in a lot of cases, one might say that you need to hunt down the collectibles, because some very important content (not to mention Trophies) can’t be accessed unless you find them all.

In this guide, we help you find some such collectibles.

SUPER MOVES

There are four Super Moves/Super Powers in Knack 2, and finding them unlocks a Trophy- so get on it right away with this video below.

TREASURE CHEST COLLECTIBLES

There are 100 Treasure Chests in the game, and finding all of them is actually mandatory if you want to find the crystal knacks, gadget parts and crystal relics – so, again, let us help you out with this. The video below will help you find all 100 Treasure Chests, and the collectibles within them, in the game. Let’s get right on it.

Knack 2 is almost as much of a brawler as it is a platformer- in fact, some might say that it is more of a brawler than a platformer, and those people wouldn’t necessarily be wrong, either. Regardless, the fact remains that combat is an emphasized part of the game.

As with many combat focused games, things in Knack 2 come to a head when you engage its bosses- of which there aren’t actually that many. Still, they are there. And while most experienced gamer should probably not have issues with them, if you have a kid who is playing the title, they might need help.

That’s where we come in- below is a video that shows you how to take on each of Knack 2‘s many bosses. Just make sure not to jump ahead of where you are, or you get spoilers- we’ve timestamped the thing so you know exactly what boss you should jump to.
