-== Development ==
-Development of ''After Burner II'' commenced after ''[[Out Run]]'' was finished. The game was mostly created by three men, [[Yu Suzuki]], Satoshi Mifune, and Kawaguchi. During development, it was codenamed ''Studio 128'' to specify the secrecy of the project.<ref>{{Cite web|author=blackoak|url=http://shmuplations.com/afterburner/|title=shmuplations.com|website=shmuplations.com|access-date=2019-09-01}}</ref>
-The primary influence of ''After Burner II'' was ''[[Top Gun]]'', although an art style in the vein of science fiction anime films like ''[[Laputa: Castle in the Sky]]'' was considered but scrapped due to team wanting to appeal to a western audience.
-''After Burner II'' was considered to be a reissue of ''After Burner'', that included minor improvements such as a throttle that was absent in the original game.

-==Legacy==
-In Japan, ''After Burner II'' was released on the [[PlayStation 2]] as part of the ''[[Sega Ages]]'' classic series.
-M2 ported ''After Burner II'' in Sega's [[3D Classics]] series to the [[Nintendo 3DS]] [[Nintendo eShop|eShop]] in Japan on 2013 and worldwide in 2015. This version is faithful to the original arcade game with additions, including Touch Controls and screen layouts that resemble the Upright as well as the Commander and Deluxe cabinets. An unlockable new Special mode was also added, which used a time-slowing "Burst" system similar to ''[[After Burner Climax]]'', and featured a different story and altered stages. This mode has no stage select or continues, and instead depends on frequent acquisition of extra lives over the course of the game in order to complete it.<ref>[http://archives.sega.jp/3d/ab2/index.html Sega 3D Classics After Burner II page (Japan)] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150211111318/http://archives.sega.jp/3d/ab2/index.html |date=2015-02-11 }}</ref>
