{{#seo: |title=Switch Rom Hacks (Translations) - GameBrew |title_mode=append |image=Xenoblade2RetransSwitch.png |image_alt=Xenoblade 2 - Delocalization and Retranslation }} This is a retranslation patch for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 built upon previous delocalization efforts, with the goal to restore the original Japanese narrative and cultural nuances that were altered or omitted in the official Western localization. ==Features== * The patch reinstates original terms to better reflect their intended meanings. For instance, 巨神獣, initially localized as "Titan," is reverted to "Divine Beast", which reflects their divine nature and their role as servants of God (しもべ/Shimobe) in the game's theological themes. * The Western release omitted the Furigana Text System, which provides additional context and depth through ruby text (furigana). This system has been restored to offer insights into cultural references and character relationships that were previously lost in translation. * The patch adjusts each line to ensure text is displayed correctly without truncation. == Installation == Just install it like any other Switch romfs mod (sd:/atmosphere/contents/<titleid>/romfs/). This has been tested on the US version of the game with 2.1 patch and all addons installed. It's compatible with graphics mods too. When you start a new game, you will see a message in Japanese asking you to choose a language. You have to select the Japanese language (日本語) - that is, press "X" and then confirm with "A". ==Screenshots== https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/images/Xenoblade2RetransSwitch-01.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/images/Xenoblade2RetransSwitch-02.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/images/Xenoblade2RetransSwitch-03.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/images/Xenoblade2RetransSwitch-04.png ==Media== '''Xenoblade 2 Re-translation & Delocalization Patch Demo "The Essence of Moe" Bonding Talks''' ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eI131ncB4B4 AnimeInfoPL]) <br> <youtube width="640">eI131ncB4B4</youtube> == Compatibility == Tested on both - emulation (Citron) and Switch with CFW. ==Changelog== '''v0.3.1 2025/09/14''' * Fixed hundreds of typos and cut-off text issues across both the main game and DLC. * Corrections applied to all types of dialogue and text boxes.
