Gameplay
In GP-1 Part II, players must control a motorcycle, making turns without leaving the track. The game features three game modes: "GP Race" which is present along with a "Practice" and "Race" mode, "Time Attack" which is a race against the clock, and "Vs Battle" which is a standard two player competitive mode. AI racers do not compete in "Vs Battle" mode.
The Japanese version uses a battery-backed save, while the North American version uses a password save.
GP Race mode is a kind of career/season mode, where the player competes to earn a place on the podium. The Japanese version begins with a qualifying round in Japan, consisting of four local tracks, followed by the real GP-1 World Championship. The North American omits this round and goes straight to the world championship. At the Japanese qualifying round there are only three available motorcycles. In the world championship another three motorcycles are available.
In the world championship, the player races against racers from around the world in 13 tracks. Rival racers will intimidate and challenge the player to bet a few bucks to see who arrives before the race, but betting is optional. The money earned from rivals or winning races can be used to upgrade the motorcycle. Earning enough points will let the player obtain better parts for their bike.
Reception
In their review, GamePro commented that though GP-1 Part II features some improvements over the original, such as more tracks, it drops many of the touches that made the original a standout game, making it an overall decent but nondescript title with nothing to make consumers choose it over the many other racing games on the market.
