Gremlins 2: The New Batch is a platform video game developed and published by Sunsoft for the Nintendo Entertainment System and Game Boy video game systems in 1990. The game was released in conjunction with the film from Warner Bros. and Amblin Entertainment.

Gameplay

In the NES game, the player controls Gizmo through various levels in the building, armed with weapons ranging from the genetically modified super tomato in the laboratory to the new matchstick-firing bow in the later sections. The goal of the game is to reach the Gremlin Control Center to wipe out all Gremlins inside. The Game Boy version was a side-scroller also featuring Gizmo.
