Fantasy Zone II: The Tears of Opa-Opa (ファンタジーゾーンII オパオパの涙) is the direct sequel to Fantasy Zone, initially developed for the Sega Master System in 1987. It is very similar to its prequel, however its levels are now split up into sections which can only be accessed via "warps". Like many first party Master System games of the era, the game is compatible with the FM synthesizer add-on.

Within a year of release, Sega brought the game to the Sega System E arcade platform, which is very similar in design to the Sega Master System. As the original game ran on the much more powerful Sega System 16 hardware, it meant that for many years the game considered to be more simplistic than its predecessor. However, in volume 33 of the Sega Ages 2500 series, development team M2 decided to finally bring the game to System 16 hardware. Though not officially distributed as an arcade board, the team worked with the restrictions that would have been in place at the time, in essence creating a "what if?" scenario. This particular volume in the series is often considered to be one of the better Sega Ages re-releases for this reason.

As well as being distributed by Sega for the Master System, Fantasy Zone II was also brought to the MSX series of computers and the Nintendo Famicom in Japan. These ports were handled by Pony Canyon and Sunsoft respectively. Sunsoft's version was renamed Fantasy Zone 2: The Teardrop of Opa-Opa. The Master System version of the game has since been re-released through the Wii's Virtual Console service.
