Langrisser II is a role-playing game released in 1994 for the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive, developed by Masaya Games and published by NCS Corporation.

It landed about 5 years into the Genesis's life. Other notable Genesis releases from 1994 include Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Mortal Kombat II and FIFA International Soccer. Among the 37 Genesis RPGs in our database, it ranks #9 by legacy score.

It is part of the Langrisser series; on the Genesis you can also try Langrisser. The series also appears on other systems with Langrisser II (PS1). Masaya Games also made Gley Lancer, Gynoug and Vixen 357 for the Genesis.

This is a solo experience: one player, no waiting on anyone else.

Pick it if…

  • you want to get lost in a long quest
  • you have time for an epic journey (20+ hours of adventure)
  • you want to experience one of the Genesis's defining games

Maybe skip it if…

  • you want instant action rather than menus, story and grinding
  • you are looking for something to play with friends
  • you only have a few minutes at a time

What playing Langrisser II is like

Role-playing games trade reflexes for strategy and story. You build a party, level up, manage equipment and travel across a large world, usually through menu-based battles.

Tip for newcomers: Retro RPGs can require some level grinding and rarely tell you exactly where to go next. Talk to every townsperson, save often and use a guide if you get stuck: there is no shame in it.
