Dragon Warrior II, known as Dragon Quest II: Akuryo no Kamigami (ドラゴンクエストII 悪霊ã®ç¥žã€… Doragon Kuesuto TsÅ«: Akuryo no Kamigami?, lit. "Dragon Quest II: Pantheon of Evil Spirits") in Japan, is a role-playing video game developed by Chunsoft and published by Enix (now known as Square Enix) in 1987 for the MSX and Nintendo Entertainment System as a part of the Dragon Quest series (then known as the Dragon Warrior series in North America).
The game's story centers on the prince of Midenhall who is ordered to stop an evil wizard after he destroys Moonbrooke Castle. On his adventure, he is accompanied by his two cousins; the prince of Cannock and the princess of Moonbrooke. This game greatly expands on the series formula from the first game by having a larger party and more areas to explore.
