7th Dragon 2020 English translation
セブンスドラゴン2020
Cavespeak's full English patch for 7th Dragon 2020, Sega's PSP RPG about a special squad fighting dragons in a ruined Tokyo.
What's translated
Cavespeak, the group behind the English patch for the first 7th Dragon on DS, translated the whole of 7th Dragon 2020: story, menus and battle text. The current release is version 0.91. The group also published its script files and editing tools on the same page, and later translated the sequel, 7th Dragon 2020-II.
About the game
The game swaps the fantasy setting of the DS original for present-day Tokyo under attack by dragons. You create a team of three agents from classes such as Samurai, Destroyer, Hacker and Psychic, then clear dragon-infested districts in turn-based battles while hunting down the many smaller dragons scattered across the city.
Playing it
The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese PSP game, following the instructions on Cavespeak's projects page. On a real PSP the patched game needs PRO custom firmware with its NoDRM engine turned on in the recovery menu; with other firmware it may only show a black screen.
