Vectorman 2 (ベクターマン2) is the sequel to Vectorman , released in 1996 for the Sega Mega Drive . Though it claims to be a direct sequel to the original game, Vectorman 2 takes place mostly in the present day, rather than an urban futuristic setting seen in Vectorman . Gameplay is largely the same as its predecessor, but more morphs and weapons have been added.
