Dragon Quest III English translation
ドラゴンクエストIII そして伝説へ… · Dragon Quest III: Soshite Densetsu e...
The English fan translation of the Super Famicom Dragon Quest III remake, plus the later addendum and bugfix revision built on it.
What's translated
DQ Translations' patch puts the Super Famicom remake of Dragon Quest III into English and is fully playable. Version 1.1 came out in November 2009.
Later revisions
The translation has had two follow-ups from other hackers, each on its own page:
- Rod Merida's addendum (version 1.0c, January 2022) revised the translation.
- Kertra's alternate bugfix (version 2.0, May 2025) reworks that addendum, fixing bugs and reverting some of its debatable translation choices. It is generally the recommended version today.
