Phantasy Star Online 2 Vita English Patch
This will translate most of the game to English, with updates to follow as we map out more of the vita layout.
In addition, we've created a Vita application (PSO2v Tweaker) to install/update the English patch for you (and launch PSO2 vita), so you don't even need a PC to update the patch!

- Download and install the VPK file above.
- Launch the PSO2v Tweaker and follow the directions. It will launch PSO2 vita at the end.
It's recommended that you play PSO2 by opening the PSO2v Tweaker every time (to make sure you have the latest patch).

You will need to manually check this website every so often to see if a new patch is available. Older patches may break your game's functionality.
Note: Using rePatch will allow the patch to work on all versions of the game - Mai (why isn't this dead yet?), Vitamin, retail cart/download, and NoNpDRM.
