The game world of Dragon Warrior, Alefgard, is included on the world map in Dragon Warrior II (although the Hero can win the game without ever setting foot there). The song that is played when wandering the fields of Dragon Warrior, "Unknown World", is also played when the Hero is in that area. Dragon Warrior II was the first Dragon Quest game to include a game of chance, and it was also the first Dragon Quest game to use multiple key types and to include travel doors (warp gates).  Dragon Warrior II uses a save feature to record progress whereas Dragon Quest II uses passwords.  The storyline introduction in Moonbrooke is present exclusively in Dragon Warrior II. In Dragon Quest II, the game starts right with the injured soldier from Moonbrooke entering Midenhall castle, seeking help from its king. When the [[SNES|Super Famicom]] remake was released in Japan in 1993, this additional Moonbrooke introduction was included in the game's opening sequence.

Dragon Quest II was released initially for both the MSX and Famicom. Dragon Quest II was remade and combined with Dragon Quest as part of [[Dragon Quest I.II]] for the Super Famicom and later the [[Game Boy Color]]. Dragon Quest I & II became localized as Dragon Warrior I & II for Game Boy Color.  The world of Dragon Quest II was later used as the setting of [[Dragon Quest Monsters: Caravan Heart]] on the [[Game Boy Advance]]. It starred Kiefer, a hero from [[Dragon Quest VII]]. Dragon Quest II was announced as being in development for cellular phones in Japan, with updated graphics that are similar to those of the Dragon Quest remake.
