Title: Tools for Translating Final Fantasy Games – A Comprehensive List
Post by: Avalanche on 2025-07-25 14:40:40

Hi everyone,
I’m starting this thread to collect information about which Final Fantasy games have tools available for fan translation. The goal is to create a central, easy-to-navigate list showing which titles can be translated, what tools are available, and which teams or communities are working on them.

This post will be continuously updated over the coming days with links to tools, translation projects, and relevant resources. If you know of any tools, teams, or methods used for specific FF games, please share them here!

Let’s work together to build a helpful resource for all Final Fantasy fans interested in game translation. :)

Thanks in advance for your contributions!

As far as I know, there are tools available for translating the following games:

🕹 Final Fantasy I - VI (NES/SNES/GBA)
 • Tool: FF6Tools
 • Author: everything8215
 • Link: https://github.com/everything8215/ff6tools
 • Notes: FF6Tools supports editing most text in the first six Final Fantasy games (except NES FF2), though non-English languages may require JSON file adjustments.

For Final Fatansy VIII version 2000 + 2013, and most of remaster is editable with the ShumiTranslator tool inside my tool: https://github.com/HobbitDur/FF8UltimateEditor/releases (https://github.com/HobbitDur/FF8UltimateEditor/releases). My ILP mod which translate all the game to 4 different language is based on this tool.
