Rastan Saga II, known in Europe as Nastar and in North America as Nastar Warrior (except for the North American Sega Genesis version, which was released as Rastan Saga II), is a 1988 hack and slash platform game developed and published by Taito for arcades. The sequel to Rastan (released as Rastan Saga in Japan), it tells the story of how Rastan got his name (meaning his real name is unknown) and saved a vast region called Rastania from evil monsters known as the Wicked Group. Rastania, the kingdom which Rastan saves in this game, subsequently becomes his kingdom to rule.
On June 20, 2024, the arcade version of the game was digitally re-released for the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 as part of the Arcade Archives series.
