Thunder Force: Gold Pack 2 (サンダーフォースゴールドパック２) is a compilation of shoot-'em-up games from the Thunder Force series, and was released exclusively for the Sega Saturn by Technosoft in 1996. It is a "sequel" to Thunder Force: Gold Pack 1. The package includes Thunder Force AC and Thunder Force IV, both previously released for Sega System C arcade hardware and the Sega Mega Drive, respectively. The package was not released outside of Japan.
The port of Thunder Force IV included in the game has some changes made from the original version: there is no slowdown present and the "Styx" ship from Thunder Force III can be selected, along with its weapons, after clearing all the stages on 1 credit (no continues) and entering a special code given after the ending.
