Donkey Kong Land 2 (ドンキーコングランド, Donkey Kong Land) is a sequel to the Game Boy title, Donkey Kong Land and the prequel to Donkey Kong Land III. The game was developed by Rare and published by Nintendo. Like the other Donkey Kong Land games (and later Pokémon Yellow), Donkey Kong Land 2 was contained within a yellow-colored Game Boy cartridge. Being a later Game Boy release, Donkey Kong Land 2 received special enhancements for the Super Game Boy, meaning that different, yet appropriate, colors would show up at different parts of gameplay. The Super Game Boy border itself consists of several bananas.

In 2014, Donkey Kong Land 2 was ported to the Nintendo 3DS's Virtual Console.
