World Championship Soccer II is a sports game developed by Sensible Software (originally uncredited) and published by Sega. It was released on Genesis in August 17, 1994 to tie in with the 1994 FIFA World Cup and also one of the rarest Mega Drive games in Europe in its original form where ironically the Classics re-release was the standard edition. The game is a sequel to World Championship Soccer, also known as World Cup Soccer, World Cup Italia 90 and Sega Soccer.
