Ridge Racer 2[a] is an arcade racing game that was released by Namco in 1994 for their System 22 hardware. Despite its name, Ridge Racer 2 is more of an updated version of Ridge Racer (which had been released in the previous year), than an actual sequel.
The gameplay is very much like that of the original, but unlike the vanilla version of Ridge Racer (which was a single-player game), in Ridge Racer 2 up to eight players can play simultaneously when four two-player cabinets are linked together. A player's number determines their car.

There also are six new songs, including remixed ones from the original, that can be selected with the gear shifter at the start. The enormous television screen above the entrance to the first tunnel shows footage from Namco's 1979 title Galaxian (in the original, it was playing Mappy). All the billboards are for earlier Namco games, there is a rear-view mirror at the top of the screen, so a player can see other cars coming from behind). There is also a change in daylight from day to night (a car driven into the track's tunnel during the day will come out the other end at night).
