NeoRHDN - Translations - Translation Information

Secret of Mana
Super Nintendo
Game Description
A long time ago, there was chaos in the world. The Mana Tree restored peace to the land. An ancient sword is stuck in the ground, maintaining the balance between good and evil. A young man is tricked into pulling the sword out of the ground, plunging the world into chaos. He must travel the world and fight to restore peace to the land.

Secret of Mana is an action RPG that supports up to three players with the use of a multitap accessory. It is the sequel to Final Fantasy Adventure and was proceeded by Seiken Densetsu 3.
Translation Description
Secret of Mana: Reborn is the first comprehensive script remaster since the game’s release in 1993.

The Super Nintendo release suffered from censorship, space limitations, and time constraints.
The 2018 remake’s script was heavily derivative of its predecessor, adding only a fraction of the remaining content and leaving thousands of words untranslated.
Finally, even Seiken Densetsu 2’s script is often vague and inconsistent, due in no small part to the game’s erratic development.
An opportunity has been taken not only to localize the script, but also to explore and iron out some of these elements.

This patch features:

-a complete retranslation of the original Japanese script, the first of its kind
-some minor alterations that clarify vagaries and inconsistencies in the text and the plot itself
-new events and content based on exhaustive research of authentic external materials, most of which were never translated into English
-memorable elements of both Ted Woolsey's script and the Japanese script
-elements that were omitted from both the American and Japanese releases of the game

See the included Localization Commentary document (PDF) for in-depth notes on translation choices and more.
