Translation Mega Drive / Genesis

Surging Aura English translation

サージングオーラ

GAMELOG's multilingual patch lets Surging Aura switch between Japanese, English and Korean from a new options menu, with a variable-width English font and optional battle tweaks.

What's in the patch

This release by GAMELOG (retrogamelog) adds English and Korean to Surging Aura while leaving the Japanese text in place: the language is chosen from a new OPTIONS menu, and the game swaps fonts and screen layouts to match. The English script is based on the earlier translation by Guadozoku and RedComet, now shown in a variable-width font, with Japanese text inside graphics translated as well.

What's new

  • Reworked layouts for menus, battles and shops so longer English lines and item names fit
  • Optional settings for the encounter rate and for post-battle rewards
  • Region-free, and reported to work on real Mega Drive hardware

Playing it

The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese cartridge following the instructions on the GAMELOG page, where it can also be applied directly in the browser.
