Sadly, your monster will even eventually die. Over the course of a monster's life, it will behave much like a real animal - growing, getting hungry, becoming tired, disobeying you, etc. Once a monster is ready to go, it is up to you to train it properly. Monsters from the original game can also be imported. 408 different monsters are possible, as compared to 193 in the original. The game reads a portion of data from the CD and creates a unique monster. A monster is "born" by inserting a CD (audio, CD-ROM, or even another PlayStation game) into the console at the requested time. Like its predecessor, Monster Rancher 2 is a game of breeding, training, and fighting. Monster Rancher 2, released two years later, retains the basic premise of the original while adding several new features and more advanced graphics.

The first Monster Rancher was a cult hit among players of all ages.
