Kingdom Hearts Final Mix English translation
キングダム ハーツ ファイナル ミックス
An English text patch for the Japan-only PS2 Final Mix of the first Kingdom Hearts, covering subtitles, menus, journal entries and messages.
What's translated
All of the game's text is in English: the subtitles, menus, Jiminy's journal, tutorial and pop-up messages. Since the spoken lines were already in English, the result plays much like the Western release with the Final Mix extras added. A few dialogue boxes and cutscenes still have small alignment problems, and some unknown journal entries show the wrong placeholder characters.
An optional add-on improves the formatting of ability descriptions, and files for anyone who wants to make their own translation are offered on the same page.
Playing it
The patcher builds an English disc image from your own copy of the Japanese PS2 game; follow the steps on the project page. It works in PCSX2 and on a real PS2. Some players report occasional softlocks in the Olympus Coliseum world with the newest build.
Patch by gledson999, building on crazycatz00's research and tools, with additions by ThePenitentTextures1, Sven Cakemann and Some1fromtheDark.
