The Jackie Chan Adventures video game is based upon the animated series Jackie Chan Adventures. Developed by Atomic Planet Entertainment and published by Sony Computer Entertainment, it was released for the PlayStation 2 on October 1, 2004 in Europe. It is compatible with the EyeToy. Jackie, Jade, Uncle, Valmont and Shendu were voiced by their original actors. A Game Boy Advance game, entitled Jackie Chan Adventures: Legend of the Dark Hand, was released in 2001.

On May 11, 2005, Hip Games (a subsidiary of Hip Interactive) announced it would be publishing the PS2 version for North America, and the game was featured at E3 2005 as a part of their lineup. However, in July of that same year, Hip Interactive went bankrupt, and no one else picked up the PS2 title for a North American release.

The story is a mix of Seasons 1 and 2 of Jackie Chan Adventures and follows The Demon Sorcerers, led by Shendu, the demon of fire. The eight demons were banished to the Demon Netherworld by eight Chinese immortals using the magic of the Pan Ku Box. In present times, the Dark Hand, led by Valmont, are using the Pan Ku Box to unleash the demons upon the world. However, Jackie Chan, his niece Jade Chan, and their Uncle are willing to stop the evil demons from returning to the planet. The heroes, also known as the J Team, search for the magical 12 Talismans as well.

Jackie Chan: The main protagonist of the game. Jackie is an archeologist who secretly works for Section 13. He has a niece named Jade and an uncle named Uncle. In his mission, he must collect the Talismans and defeat the Demon Sorcerers as well. He is an expert in martial arts.

Jade Chan: Jackie's 11-year-old niece from China. She moved to the United States and has enjoyed her adventures with her uncle, who believes the missions he goes on are too dangerous for Jade.
