Instead of a timing-based grappling engine, you punch in simple button combos and then watch short live-action clips decide whether your move lands, complete with stamina and health bars.<\/p>\n<p>The new patch, credited to 72PaulDaniel, is available through ROMhack.ing as an English fan translation, with system menus, league and versus modes, and Disc B\u2019s Scenario mode, where your chosen wrestler has to fend off an invading KWP promotion, all translated. The ROMhack.ing entry notes that most core UI is now in English, with some peripheral options still in <a href=\"https:\/\/retrohandhelds.gg\/landmark-visual-novel-shizuku-finally-gets-an-english-fan-translation\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Japanese<\/a> and supported through updated documentation.<\/p>\n<p>Given that the PC-FX library is a crowded graveyard of untranslated visual novels and oddities, seeing a fully playable sports title pop up in English is rare. Folks who\u2019ve only known AJW through <a href=\"https:\/\/retrohandhelds.gg\/lost-nes-rpg-resurfaces-in-seven-minute-video\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">grainy YouTube uploads<\/a> now have a dedicated, officially licensed, mid\u201190s time capsule they can actually read, even if the \u201cgameplay\u201d is mostly FMV coin flips.<\/p>\n<p>The translation is available now at the project\u2019s Romhack.ing page. If you\u2019ve got a way to run PC-FX images and a soft spot for stiff lariats and neon ring gear, this one is for you!<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/romhack.ing\/database\/content\/entry\/-JIdj-dSReyb69bQ1d0aCw\/all-japan-women-s-pro-wrestling-queen-of-queens-english\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Romhack.ing<\/a> via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeextension.com\/news\/2026\/02\/slay-queen-another-pc-fx-game-has-been-translated-into-english\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Time Extension<\/a><\/p>\n<p>What did you think of this article?
