Strider 2, released in Japan as Strider Hiryū 2 (ストライダー飛竜2, Sutoraidā Hiryū Tsū), and then as Strider Hiryū 1&2 (ストライダー飛竜1&2, Sutoraidā Hiryū Wan & Tsū), is a 1999 hack and slash game developed and published by Capcom for arcades. The game is a direct sequel to the original Strider and the second sequel to Strider produced, following U.S. Gold's 1990 noncanonical Strider II (Journey from Darkness: Strider Returns in North America), a game with which Capcom was not directly involved. The Capcom-produced Strider 2 makes no references to the Western-only Strider Returns/Strider II. The game was released for arcades in 1999 and was ported to the PlayStation in 2000.
