    Localized Soundtrack

    Concept »

    Whether it be to translate foreign lyrics, eschew copyright issues, technical limitations, or appeal to an American audience, these games had changes to their soundtracks when brought to the United States.

    Short summary describing this concept.

    No recent wiki edits to this page.

    Unlike text and dialogue, music is one of the features of games that different cultures have in common. The Mega Man 2 and Final Fantasy XII soundtracks are the same in every language. But every so often the music in a game needs to be changed when it's brought to the United States. Whether it be a single song or an entire score, sometimes we don't get the original music.
