Death MK II (デスMk-II ) is a recurring boss in the Gradius series.
Description
Death MK II is the boss of stage 4 of Gradius II. He also appeared in the Gradius III boss rush and was also a junk boss in Gradius Gaiden stage Requiem for Revengers, serving a major role in the boss rush as DeathDouble. This one started the "SURPRISE!" second part Death is well known for.
Attack patterns
Death MK II shoots missiles when the doors open, sometimes they're homing, sometimes they're not (this is game dependent). When the door is destroyed, Death MK II becomes faster and a giant laser charges then shoots out to prevent the core from being damaged. The player should be careful to not get caught by this sneaky attack.
In Gradius Gaiden as DeathDouble, the laser/missile roles are reversed. The lasers are the first phase then the missiles as the doors are destroyed.
Trivia
The hatch is similar to the enemy Mother and Child, same as Death MK-I.
