Queen II Collector's Edition features the 2026 mix of the album, plus audio of Queen in the recording studio, previously unheard outtakes and demos, live tracks, and radio sessions.

Originally released in March 1974, Queen II marked a pivotal moment in the band's development. The album expanded on the ambition hinted at on their 1973 debut and laid the groundwork for the sound that would define Queen's future.

Now, more than fifty years on, the album has been remixed and remastered. The new 2026 mix has been overseen by Brian May and Roger Taylor as executive producers, with mixing handled by Justin Shirley-Smith, Joshua J Macrae and Kris Fredriksson.

Queen's self-titled 1973 debut album had established the band as one of the boldest and most unique new voices in music. Even a troubled recording process, which resulted in a sound the band were unhappy with (subsequently rectified on the 2024 reissue), couldn't mask the brilliance of the songs, nor the ambition of the band behind them.
