Translation SNES / Super Famicom

Bahamut Lagoon English translation

バハムート ラグーン

Near's 2021 English translation of Bahamut Lagoon, a new translation of Square's Super Famicom dragon strategy RPG with reworked text display.

What's translated

Near made a new English translation of Bahamut Lagoon, more than two decades after first working on the game. It covers the full script and menus, with changes to how the game draws text so that names and lines fit naturally. Version 1.2 is the last release.

About the project

The linked repository holds the source of the translation, released as a toolkit for people who want to study the techniques or translate the game into other languages; its releases carry the finished patch.

About the game

You lead the rebel knight Byuu and a fleet of dragons across the Lagoons. Your dragons grow based on what you feed them, and their form changes how they fight alongside your squads.

Playing it

Apply the patch to your own copy of the Japanese cartridge following the creator's instructions.
