After Sir Daniel Fortesque defeated the evil sorcerer Zarok, he went to the Hall of Heroes and his body went to rest for all eternity in peace as a true hero. Now, 500 years later, Dan has been awakened in a Victorian museum in Kensington and is found by a helpful ghost named Winston. He learns that Zarok's spell book has unfortunately been found by another sorcerer named Lord Palethorn. Upon opening the book, Palethorn managed to scatter all of the pages across London and unleashed the living dead amongst the city. So, it's up to Sir Dan and his new allies, a professor with metal hands and a mummy princess named Kiya to stop Palethorn from collecting all the lost pages of the spell book and taking over all of London.
After [[Sir Daniel Fortesque]] defeated the evil sorcerer [[Zarok]], he went to the [[Hall of Heroes]] and his body went to rest for all eternity in peace as a true hero. Now, 500 years later, Dan has been awakened in a Victorian museum in Kensington and is found by a helpful ghost named [[Winston]]. He learns that [[Zarok's spellbook|Zarok's spell book]] has unfortunately been found by another sorcerer named [[Lord Palethorn]]. Upon opening the book, Palethorn managed to scatter all of the pages across London and unleashed the living dead amongst the city. So, it's up to Sir Dan and his new allies, a [[professor]] with metal hands and a mummy princess named [[Kiya]] to stop Palethorn from collecting all the lost pages of the spell book and taking over all of London.
After fighting many monsters, ending with the notorious [[Jack the Ripper]] (who at first kills Kiya, but is thwarted after Dan travels back in time to save her, officially making the two a couple), Dan eventually finds the final page at [[Cathedral Spires]]. This makes the building come down, but Dan survives and wanders the ruins till he gets to a small room. Palethorn then shows up in a hovercraft and takes the page from him, then offers Dan the chance to join him. Dan declines, so Palethorn sends his henchmen Mander and Dogman (who were also affected by the spell, but unlike their master, they were turned into a lizard and dog) to kill him again (the first fight they have occurs in Greenwich Observatory). Once Dan slaughters them, he goes to the next room where Palethorn summons a large demon from Zarok's spellbook. Dan defeats Palethorn by getting him to accidentally shoot the demon with his machine guns with whatever projectile weapons he has, which results in getting his hovercraft punched by the demon. When the demon throws the final blow on Palethorn, the hovercraft crashes onto the ground and the demon dives into the pit below. Palethorn, before dying, plants a bomb to take Dan with him, but he escapes. The professor, Dan, and Kiya then reunite and like the first game, the ending will differ depending on what the player did:

*[[Sir Daniel Fortesque]] - The protagonist of the game. He was the captain chosen to lead the fight against Zarok, but was killed by an arrow during the first charge. He was later resurrected when Zarok returned to terrorize the land once again. This time Sir Dan was able to defeat his nemesis, restoring his name and proving himself to be a true hero. He is a skeleton with no lower jaw, therefore he humorously mumbles in speech although unlike in the first game, the player can understand him. Compared to the first game, his design was slightly modified. His head is a little larger, and he also wears leather gloves.

*[[Professor Hamilton Kift]] - A nervous, fast-talking professor in the laboratory near an unused underground rail station. He's a somewhat short man with mechanical hands and a large head. He is skilled in different forms of science, philosophy, the occult and has a knack for creating inventions. Collecting the Chalice in each level provides him the materials to create a new weapon.
