Rent A Hero No. 1

English version

A complete, official, English translation was made for the game, and even sent to reviewers, but at the last minute the release was canceled. It was originally scheduled for release by AIA USA. The translation was eventually leaked on the internet.

On May 2023 an English amateur translation was released for the Dreamcast version of the game, authored by VincentNL. It can be obtained here: https://www.romhacking.net/translations/6925/
