World Heroes 2 (not to be confused with SNK's official World Heroes 2 arcade game) is an unlicensed video game for the Famicom. 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.

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 extremely difficult if not impossible.
