Shin Megami Tensei II English translation
真・女神転生II · Shin Megami Tensei 2
A machine translation with human revision that makes the PlayStation remake of Shin Megami Tensei II fully playable in English, with translated movies and optional gameplay additions such as a Demon Compendium.
What's translated
Roman215's patch puts the dialogue, menus and the opening and game-over movies into English. The translation was made by machine and then revised by hand, and the whole project is open source. Despite the low version number, it is playable from start to finish.
What's new
The recommended patch adds two extras:
- A Demon Compendium at the Cathedral of Shadows
- The map marker shows your alignment as it turns: clockwise for Law, counter-clockwise for Chaos, a sideways wobble for Neutral
Each release comes in four versions, so you can pick English or Japanese movies and enhanced or original mechanics separately.
Playing it
Apply the patch you choose to your own disc image of the Japanese game (Rev 1), following the instructions on Roman215's GitHub page.
