Sega Consumer Research and Development Dept. #2 (Sega CS2) was a video game research and development division within Sega. As the name suggests, it was the second "consumer"-specific R&D department created by Sega Enterprises[2][1].

Prominent members of CS2 worked on popular Mega Drive favourites of the past namely the Phantasy Star and Shinobi games. Notable series the department were involved with include Sakura Taisen and category:Daisenryaku (via a sub-team nicknamed Sega Strategic Squad Pine Apple[3][4]), as well as several ports of arcade racing games.

In May 1999, all of Sega's internal development divisions were renamed, with CS2 becoming Sega Software R&D Dept. 7[1].
