Back in November, we reported on the unexpected discovery and unofficial release of Splatterworld, a JRPG spin-off of the horror-themed beat-'em-up series Splatterhouse. Originally scheduled for release on the Japanese Famicom in 1993, it seems unlikely that this game ever would've been officially localized for NES even if it hadn't been canceled before launch, but don't tell that to the romhackers who've already given us a complete fan translation patch of a game that would've been considered lost media just one month ago.
"Just shy of five weeks after the initial ROM dump became available (33 days, to be precise) we now have a complete translation patch for the game," fan translation group Aeon Genesis says in its announcement of Splatterworld's translation patch.
