- TRIVIA -
Released in March 1987. The game was not successful for Bally Midway, in fact Spy Hunter II is widely considered by gamers as one of the worst sequels ever made. The game's use of a 3-D perspective from behind and above the car in place of an overhead view used in the original was an unpopular one. Though it created more realism, many fans preferred the original and as a result it never went into large scale production.
Peter Gunn theme music plays throughout the game.

- 0.129u6: Changed 68000 CPU3 to CPU2.
- 13th October 2008: Mr. Do - Way back when, Kiltron re-created a bezel for Spy Hunter 2. I, however, could not figure out a good way to split the screen between the two halves of the bezel. I figured out a way that somewhat worked, and it came out OK, I think (not that SH2 is a good game in the first place).

- 0.98u1: Changed M6809 CPU2 clock speed to 2MHz.
