[[Cyber Connect 2]] is a video game developer founded in February 16, 1996 and situated in Fukuoka Japan. They are best known for the ''[[.hack]]'' series and the ''[[Naruto]]: Ultimate Ninja'' series, but have a made few other games such as ''[[Tail Concerto]]'', ''[[Silent Bomber]]'', ''[[Solatorobo]]'', and a recent collaboration effort with [[Capcom]] on ''[[Asura's Wrath]]''.
 
The company was formerly known as CyberConnect, and was composed of a group of 10 people, nine of which who previously worked on Taito's ''[[Psychic Force]]'' and ''[[Ray Series|Ray Storm]]''. Its name changed to CyberConnect2 on the 7th of October 2007 after there was a change in command after their first two games ''[[Tail Concerto]]'' and ''[[Silent Bomber]]'' commercially failed (despite being decent enough games).
 
They have also expanded their production beyond games, beginning with the formation of "Sensible Art Innovation" to create the ''.hack//G.U. Trilogy'' movie, and LieN to compose their music.
 
Following the cancellation of ''[[MegamanMega Man Legends]] 3'', the president and CEO, Hiroshi Matsuyama, has said he would be delighted to take over the project.

{{creatortropes}}
=== Tropes associated with CyberConnect2: ===
* [[For the Cel of It]]: A lot of their games have cel shading of sorts.
* [[Press X to Not Die]]: Starting with the ''Ultimate Ninja Storm'' series of ''Naruto'' fighters, though many of them are said to be done well. ''[[Asura's Wrath]]'' by the same people takes this to unexplored territory, ''especially'' during the {{spoiler|Chakravartin battle}}.
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: A lot of their protagonists have these, to go along with a [[Super-Powered Evil Side]]. [[.hack GU|Haseo]], [[Naruto|Kyuubi Naruto]], [[Solatorobo|Red the Hunter]], and more recently, [[Asura's Wrath|Asura]] are the stand out examples of this.
* [[Self-Made Man]]: Of the founding members of the original CyberConnect, the current president and CEO, Hiroshi Matsuyama, was the only one with no prior video-game creation experience (he worked on graphics and level design).
