Play After Burner II (Japan) Online
Barrel-rolling through missile swarms at full throttle, barely keeping your jet in one piece as explosions rock the screen—this is arcade flying stripped down to pure adrenaline. That iconic Sega arcade rush somehow squeezed into an NES cartridge.
After Burner II on the NES was a port of Sega's arcade flight shooter, developed and published by Sunsoft in 1990. It arrived late in the NES lifecycle, attempting to translate a cabinet known for its hydraulic motion and scaling sprites into the constraints of an 8-bit console.
You pilot an F-14 Tomcat, engaging enemy fighters and ground targets across multiple stages. The main objective is survival; you must shoot down foes while dodging their missiles and gunfire. Signature mechanics include selecting from two weapon types (standard missiles or a rapid-fire cannon) and executing evasive barrel rolls to shake off incoming threats. The pace is relentless, and the difficulty is steep, with limited continues and aggressive enemy patterns. It feels like a constant, frantic scramble to keep your jet airborne amid the chaos.
