R-Type II

R-Type II is a horizontally scrolling shooter developed and published by Irem. The player controls a ship called the R-9C, which is an improved version of its predecessor game’s ship, the R-9. The ship’s design was changed slightly, and the Wave Cannon is given a new charge level. Two new types of weapons (the Search Laser and Shotgun Laser) were added, bringing the total number of weapon types up to five. A new anti-ground unit bomb was added to the missile inventory.
