The Story Behind Super Turrican 2
Civilizations were destroyed in an instant and the whole system fell under the spell of evil, with just a few tiny cries for help escaping the boundaries of the system. Little do the inhabitants of the planets know about the menacing hordes of The Machine. Shipwrecked somewhere in this devastated realm is the last remaining survivor of the assault squad team sent by the United Freedom Forces.
Equipped with his Turrican assault suit, he has to face alone the attempt to stop The Machine's plan to transform the devastated galaxy into his new army stronghold. Badly damaged and burning, the ship hurtles towards a devastated dune world. As the sirens yell across the hangar, three ships blast off into the unknown.
