TimeSplitters 2 is a first-person shooter video game developed by Free Radical Design and published by Eidos Interactive. It was released for the PlayStation 2, GameCube and Xbox game consoles in 2002 in North America and Europe, and in 2003 in Japan. It is the second game in the TimeSplitters series, and a sequel to the original TimeSplitters.

The game features a single-player mode consisting of ten levels in which the player assumes the role of one of two space marines as they attempt to stop the alien race of TimeSplitters from ruining history by collecting the time crystals in various time periods, ranging from the Wild West to the 25th century. It has several multiplayer modes.

Due to the game's critical acclaim, a sequel, TimeSplitters: Future Perfect, was released in 2005, developed by Free Radical and published by Electronic Arts. In June 2007, another sequel was announced to be in development, titled TimeSplitters 4, but it eventually got cancelled.

TimeSplitters 2 is a first-person shooter that requires players to kill enemies and complete objectives using a variety of weapons and tactics in different predefined scenarios. Armour and health bars on the sides of the screen lower when the player is shot, which can be increased by walking over body armor and medical kits.
