Numerous typos and engrish can be spotted throughout the game (i.e. "If screen is error", "Player Secelt", etc). The engine used within this game was recycled for numerous other pirate fighting games, so identifying the origin of the ROM would be difficult and maybe impossible.

World Heroes 2 (not to be confused with SNK's official World Heroes 2 arcade game) is an unlicensed video game for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It is a fighting game supposedly made by a group called "Cony Soft" in 1994 that pits several characters from different unrelated games against each other.

Bison (Street Fighter), Mario and Bowser (Super Mario Bros.), Sonic (Sonic the Hedgehog), Leonardo (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), Mike Haggar (Final Fight), Laurence Blood, Andy Bogard, and Mai Shiranui (Fatal Fury), and Son Goku (Dragon Ball). The characters also have themes mimicking music used in their respective games or from other games.
