This page is about the 8-bit game. For the Sega Genesis version, see Sonic the Hedgehog 2.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 is a 1992 platform game developed by Aspect and published by Sega for the Master System and Game Gear. It is an 8-bit companion game to the 16-bit Sega Genesis title Sonic the Hedgehog 2, the second game in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, and a sequel to the 8-bit version of the original Sonic the Hedgehog. Though it shares a name with the Genesis game, it features a completely different plot and levels, and several new game mechanics. The player controls Sonic, as he attempts to recover the Chaos Emeralds and rescue his kidnapped friend Tails from Dr. Robotnik. The Game Gear version of the game was played on The D-Pad in 2016, as the fifth game in The Super Sonic Let's Play. The LP consisted of 9 episodes, released on weekdays from July 8 to July 19, 2016.

The game was revisited on The D-Pad in a one-off episode by Rick in 2022, as the second game in Sonic Weekathon II. The episode was streamed live on the dpadfm Twitch account before being uploaded to YouTube on June 24, 2022.
