Princess Crown, one of Sega Saturn’s best games, has received a significant boost in its English translation. The latest update from eadmaster in version 0.8 includes translated story events, items, and names, and introduces English text for radial menus, combat scenes, and shops.

  • Story Events, Items and Names Translated: All event dialogue and item descriptions are now available in English.
  • Shop, Combat, and Doorway Signs (most) Now Support English Text.
  • Improved Soft-lock Fixes. Some irritating soft-lock events have been addressed for smoother gameplay.

This update is a significant milestone, bringing this cult classic closer to becoming accessible to a global audience. The work from various fan translators over the years has culminated in these tangible improvements.

See the original article for a download link for the patch.

Never played it in Japanese. Hoping the final English build is good quality. Loving all the work that these translation teams put into these games!
