Dubbing History[]
In 1996, Orion Pictures released the first two episodes of the series on two individual VHS tapes. Because of Orion taking over Streamline Pictures' catalog, the dub was commissioned by Orion to a separate company, Pretend Productions. Most of the same cast from Streamline's dub of part one were brought back. Plans for a third release containing the final episode were scrapped after Orion Pictures was sold to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The final episode with Orion's dub would only see release in Australia and the United Kingdom. Orion's original VHS releases of both series have become pretty scarce.
Much like the previous series, this series was also licensed by Geneon Entertainment with a new English dub.

Notes[]
- Kirk Thornton replaces David Povall as Benares in the Orion dub, likely due to Povall becoming inactive in the dubbing community.
- Jeff Bennett and Frank Welker are the only main cast members from Gargoyles who did not contribute in either of the Geneon dubs.
- Naparva is called Napalba in the Orion dub.
