'''''Alien Breed II: The Horror Continues''''' is a [[run and gun game|run and gun video game]] released in 1993 by [[Team17]] for the [[Amiga]]. The sequel to ''[[Alien Breed (video game)|Alien Breed]]'', it was available in both [[Amiga Original chipset|OCS]]/[[Amiga Enhanced Chip Set|ECS]] and [[Advanced Graphics Architecture|AGA]] versions. The AGA version of the game was also included as an extra in the [[Amiga CD32]] version of ''[[Alien Breed: Tower Assault]]''.<br />
<br />
The game engine for ''Alien Breed II'' was largely rewritten to allow smoother scrolling between screens (the code for which was carried over to another Team17 project, ''[[Superfrog]]'', a 2D platform game). The graphics were also vastly improved, as were the size and number of levels (there are 17 in ''AB-II'' compared to 6 in ''Alien Breed'' and 12 in ''Alien Breed Special Edition 92''). The difficulty curve for ''AB-II'' is also steeper than that of its predecessor.<br />
<br />
''Alien Breed II'' is the only game in the series that gives players the option of choosing between four characters, each with their own specific strengths and weaknesses.<br />
