After a successful Run I, D0 is poised for an encore performance in Run II. This article summarizes the essential features of the D0 upgrade that involve a central magnetic field, a new tracking system, upgraded muon detection, and enhancements to muon, calorimeter and the data acquisition electronics. The goals for top quark physics for Run II are outlined along with issues affecting the precision measurement of top quark mass and single top quark production. The prospects and issues determining the B physics capabilities of D0 in Run II are addressed briefly and a study of the CP sensitivity in the mode B{sub d}{sup 0} {yields} J/{psi}K{sub s}{sup 0} is also presented.
