Phantasy Star Generation 2 English translation
SEGA AGES 2500シリーズ Vol.17 ファンタシースター Generation:2 · Sega Ages 2500 Series Vol. 17: Phantasy Star Generation: 2
The finalized English translation of Sega's Japan-only PS2 remake of Phantasy Star II, now fixed to run on real PS2 hardware, with an optional tweaks addendum; machine translation was part of the process.
What's translated
The patch brings the remake's story, menus and dialogue into English. Machine translation was used as part of the work, so some lines may read less naturally than a fully hand-written script.
What's new in 4.0
This is the final release. It fixes a crash that happened on real PS2 consoles (confirmed by testers on hardware) and corrects a number of typos. The package also includes an optional set of gameplay tweaks as a separate addendum, the documentation, and a virtual memory card save for players who want to jump straight into the post-game Clear Game Quest.
Playing it
The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese PS2 disc, following the instructions on the project page.
