Luminous Arc 3 English Patch

Luminous Arc 3 is a tactical role-playing game developed by Imageepoch and published by Marvelous Entertainment for the Nintendo DS in 2009. It is the third and final installment of the Luminous Arc series, featuring a new cast of characters and a different setting from the previous games. The game follows the story of Levi, a young Knight of Magi who fights against the Felicia, mysterious creatures that seek to steal the eyes of humans who possess magical powers.

Unfortunately, Luminous Arc 3 was never officially localized for the English-speaking market, leaving many fans of the series unable to enjoy the game. However, thanks to the efforts of a dedicated fan translation team, an English patch for Luminous Arc 3 has been released on December 24, 2021. The patch translates the entire game, including the online/multiplayer mode, which can be played using the Wiimmfi Network. The patch is in xDelta format and can be applied to the original Japanese ROM using various tools. The CRC-32 of the original Japanese ROM is 848822fd and the CRC-32 of the successfully patched English ROM is caec12b5.
