King of the Monsters 2 (SNES)

King of the Monsters 2 makes the series into a beat-'em-up of sorts, as upgraded versions of three of the original monsters team up to fight the wacky alien minions of (King) Famardy.

Regional Differences#

Most of the bosses had their names changed between versions, consistent with the original Neo Geo release. Oddly, Aqua Slug (the fifth boss) kept his Japanese name of Sack Eyes for unknown reasons.
