The blog for the Valkyria Chronicles 3 Translation Project has been stirring as of late, happy to announce for those anxiously following them that their translation efforts will soon be playable. Do note though: the team will be releasing what they are calling the first version of the translation patch. In an effort to get their work out to eager fans sooner, they will be releasing a first patch within approximately two weeks.
This is kind of like an beta-version of the game. It will NOT include extra DLC (despite the FAQ), it will originally cover just the VC3-E2 edition as there will need to be massive editing to shrink the text to fit in the original version of VC3. The entire script may not be translated (say about 90% will be) in this first release of the patch.
The team mentions that there are some stray pieces currently untranslated, but essentials including menu interface and story events will be translated, alongside more than 178 mission objectives!
The team prefers to keep publicity on their project at a minimum, but with the humble niche-ness of Segalization’s blog, we hope to post this news serving as a reminder for those already interested. Also, the localization team asks for patience in both their release schedule and with the patches as they are released.
