Gauntlet II is a 1986 hack and slash video game developed and published by Atari Games for arcades. It is a sequel to the original Gauntlet, which was released the previous year. Like its predecessor, Gauntlet II is a fantasy-themed top down dungeon crawler, and was released as a dedicated cabinet, as well as a conversion kit, both available in two- and four-player versions.
