==Story==
 +
{{quote|VectorMan 2 picks up on VectorMan's adventures immediately after the demise of his arch-enemy, Warhead. A routine sludge barge excursion is cut short when a mysterious missile critically damages VectorMan's ship. VectorMan escapes destruction and freefalls back to Earth, landing on the outskirts of a seemingly abandoned research facility. As he begins to investigate the source of the missile, VectorMan discovers a mutant strain of insects have begun to flourish in the research facility. Worse yet, the insects display destructive tendencies towards the planet and seem to be run by an unseen intelligence. VectorMan's mission is clear: defeat the mutant insects and once again save the Earth from impending disaster.|''US manual''|ref={{fileref|Vectorman 2 MD US Manual.pdf|page=5}}}}

Vectorman 2 (ベクターマン2) is the sequel to Vectorman, released in 1996 for the Sega Mega Drive. Though it claims to be a direct sequel to the original game, Vectorman 2 takes place mostly in the present day, rather than an urban futuristic setting seen in Vectorman. Gameplay is largely the same as its predecessor, but more morphs and weapons have been added.

Story

“ VectorMan 2 picks up on VectorMan's adventures immediately after the demise of his arch-enemy, Warhead. A routine sludge barge excursion is cut short when a mysterious missile critically damages VectorMan's ship. VectorMan escapes destruction and freefalls back to Earth, landing on the outskirts of a seemingly abandoned research facility. As he begins to investigate the source of the missile, VectorMan discovers a mutant strain of insects have begun to flourish in the research facility. Worse yet, the insects display destructive tendencies towards the planet and seem to be run by an unseen intelligence. VectorMan's mission is clear: defeat the mutant insects and once again save the Earth from impending disaster. „
