More than a hundred years have passed since the Earth was attacked by the vicious IRIDION forces. Legend tells of a single brave SHN Fighter pilot who found his way to destroy the evil IRIDION mainframe. After this glorious victory, all remaining enemy ships disappeared from known space. Humans began to colonize the planet systems of the IRIDION home galaxy. Peace and freedom came back to mankind. The IRIDION menace was history.

Until now.

Within only one day, all communication with the human space outposts had been lost. The last transmissions made it clear that the IRIDION Empire had returned and have taken over all colonized systems. Planet Earth is too far away to send help in time. Again only a single, but powerfully equipped spaceship is within reach to stop the IRIDION forces before they can go on to attack the last remaining planet of human beings... Earth.

IRIDION II, the sequel to the highly acclaimed Game Boy® Advance launch title IRIDION 3D, once again pushes the Game Boy® Advance hardware to its technical limits with its beautiful 3D environments and intense shoot-em-up action. Players must fight through 5 huge galaxies containing 15 diverse and challenging planets including space ports, asteroid fields, lava wastelands, alien nature, crystal corridors, cloud cities, dockbays and many more. You will control the new SHN pyrocluster fighter prototype equipped with 6 cannon weapons including: plasma laser, pulse shot, deflector laser, radial gun, seeking laser and swarm gun. Each of these weapons comes in 3 power levels (with optional AutoUpgrade feature). Your fighter is also equipped with two of the most powerful special weapons: The smart-bomb and super-shot. You'll have to use them wisely as you encounter more than 200 different enemies and 30 huge boss enemies.
