Sequel to 1991's Spriggan, Spriggan MK2 will be remembered for being one of the only side-scrolling shooters developed by Compile (as opposed to the top-down shooters they are better known for).

Once again you get to pilot a mecha in a war between two opposing armies, this time to decide the fate of a distant colony in outer space.As in the original Spriggan, other AI-controlled mechas join in the fight and even talk to you with full voice-overs to advance the plot. The color-coding weapon system of the original is gone, replaced with a standard collectible power-up system, no options are available to watch your back but being able to change the way your mecha faces allows you to deal with threats from behind.
