This is a list of skills in Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei II for the Famicom.
Skills labeled as "Extra" are randomly used over a Demon's basic attack. Several skills have variants that share the same name, but otherwise have differing statistics or effects.
For skills in the Kyūyaku Megami Tensei remaster, see Skills in Kyūyaku Megami Tensei.
