Didn't even know about this today and tried looking for a thread on it, but couldn't find one. A group of Japanese FF6 fans (they exist!?) created a fan patch for the game that adds a lot of content to the base game.

The patch is called Final Fantasy 6 T-Edition.

It has:
New Events
New Quests
New Bosses
A Shit load of references to the other Final Fantasy games
A Dressing Room
A Music Room
An Achievement Room
A Collection Room
New Spells
New Last Resort attacks
New items
New equipment
New Espers
New Skills
New Animations
Descriptions for each Rage!

Just some selections of the Dressing Room

Sprites are really great! Aeris Terra, Yuna Celes, Strago Tellah and White mage Relm. Will definitely check it out. Had no idea this even existed. Thanks OP.

1upsuper · Nov 21, 2016

Pretty cool. If it gets a translation patch I'm down to play it.

Holy Order Sol · Nov 21, 2016

Damn, and I thought I was missing out already with FF5r.

It's basically the hack in question for FF5.

AuthenticM · Nov 21, 2016

damn

I wish this would get translated.

dickroach · Nov 21, 2016

why the hell would anyone want Ultimecia and other bosses in FF6? odd

Meh, don't mess with an already perfect game.

FFVI is far from perfect.

I want my General Leo ;_;

Beatrix Celes and Black Mage Strago are awesome.

Heh, I know, right? It's kind of a whatever installment over there.

It's WAY more popular in the west.

Well, this is just from my own little secondhand interpretations over the years, but like the OP I've never really heard of much enthusiasm for it in Japan. IV's the big SNES-era breadwinner for 'em, it seems, and that's rather reflected in the IV port/remake craze that went on at Square for a while, too, heh.

CKD5989 · Nov 21, 2016

All these additions but no General Leo?

Fou-Lu · Nov 21, 2016

This is really cool, I wish it were translated.

Actually, I think V's popularity overshadows IV in Japan. It's one of the reasons why Bartz/Butz is usually near the top of the Japanese fan polls for characters from the series.

Yeah, FFV is bigger over there as well.

It's always kinda boggled my mind how middling a reception gets over there. I wonder what the deal is?

butman · Nov 21, 2016

If this should be the FF6 Remake that we will ever get. I'm ok with it.

English fanslation go for it!

Their translation didn't slit their momma's throat for a nickel

DLC for a 25yr old gem. Is nothing sacred???

Not as a playable character from from what I've seen

He does appear as an optional boss in Kefka's Tower. If fought with Terra, he will give her a special item only usable by her that will allow her to use the Shock move.

GamerJM · Nov 21, 2016

Sounds more like a fan hack than a fan patch? When I think of fan patches I think of things like glitch fixes.

ShinRPGamer · Nov 21, 2016

I'd be down for this if there was an english translation. This looks pretty damn cool.

Mods, hacks, translations, are all colloquially referred to as patches due to the popularity of the IPS patch format.

Shouta · Nov 21, 2016

I might have to try this. It's been awhile since I've played FF6 but I could use a slightly different experience for my Nth run, lol.

Even back in the late 90's we differentiated between translation patches and fan hacks.

Lunarwhale · Nov 21, 2016

I remember hearing about this a while ago. Shame it will probably never get translated - the work they've done with it sounds great, and if nothing else it would be fun to revisit FFVI with all of these additions.

For real. Bitch'll be first in line!

R_thanatos · Nov 21, 2016

Damn They added more stuff to a game already full of stuff ...

How do last resort attack work ?

I imagine same as they always did... Chance of triggering when critical health when you use attack command.

They were the precursor to the Limit Breaks of FFVII. If a characters health is low they have an extremely small chance to have them as an option to use. This game patch upped their occurrence along with crits while balancing the rest of the game.

NipplesAndToes23 · Nov 21, 2016

I heard about that years ago, but I never seen one in all the times I've played this game.

jackal27 · Nov 21, 2016

Oh MAN! I really need a translation of this

Man Called Aerodynamics · Nov 21, 2016

Those cosplay sprites are great! Celes dressed up as Beatrix and Yuna was just the thing I never knew I desperately needed.

CO_Andy · Nov 21, 2016

Damn. This is sick!

Wonder what the romhacking community on the other side of the sea is like? Anything else cool besides FF6?

Nanashrew · Nov 21, 2016

Love the costumes! If it gets a translation patch, I'd definitely try it!

Urthor · Nov 21, 2016

Translation plz Gaf

Would love to do another FF6 playthrough

Negator · Nov 21, 2016

I'm looking forward to playing this someday.

malboroking · Nov 21, 2016

The sprite work for this is really good. They did a great job with the costumes.

hutna · Nov 21, 2016

My wife is really into this version.

We recently played through Brave New World (an English language ROM hack that is similar to this) together and found it the most fun we've had with FFVI in a long time. It's also probably my favorite version of the game.

Hibiki Kurosawa · Nov 21, 2016

Whaaaa!? This is really cool. It inspires me to try little projects like this. This one is pretty impressive looking too.

That's rad. I'll have to try out this mod sometime for sure.

Projectjustice · Nov 21, 2016

The Japanese are so desperate for a normal good FF game they had to do this!

badcrumble · Nov 21, 2016

The FFVI romhack community is probably the very best one out there.

DrBretto · Nov 21, 2016

There's already a really great FFVI fan-patch in English. It's called Brave New World and it's fantastic.

Trojita · Nov 21, 2016

lol You can cosplay as the FF4 cast and fight Golbez

There is a FF6 fan patch that adds A LOT of stuff to the game, but it's Japanese only
