Disciples II: Dark Prophecy is a 2002 turn-based strategy game by Strategy First for Microsoft Windows. It is the sequel to the 1999 game Disciples: Sacred Lands, and has become significantly more successful in terms of both sales and popularity than its predecessor. A collector's edition version of the game was released, which included a card game based upon the story and five extra quests.

Three expansion packs were released: Guardians of the Light, Servants of the Dark, and Rise of the Elves. Two compilation editions followed: Disciples 2: Gallean's Return contains the base game plus Guardians of the Light and Servants of the Dark, while Disciples II: Rise of the Elves combines the base game with Rise of the Elves and an additional campaign.

Developed by Linux Game Publishing, a port for Linux was in development between 2002 and 2003 before going unreleased. A port of Disciples II for the Nintendo DS was in development, but not released. A sequel named Disciples III: Renaissance was released in 2009.
