After being ravaged by the mighty Belser Army the planet of Darius is recuperating and its inhabitants are now on the planet Olga while Darius is being rebuilt. One day the quarters on olga detect a strange signal from what they believe are their Earthling ancestors and send out Proco Jr. and Tiat Young to help. What they find though is a massive fight and in the brilliant Darius II you must pilot your cool ship deep into the enemy's defences and blast the hell out of everything you see!

Sega Genesis fans out there loving this incredibly cool and fun title will also love to play more awesome games from this flying genre, such as Prehistoric Isle in 1930, R-Type and the brilliant Flying Shark!
