After getting an official English translation in 2019, a full 3D remake of Trials of Mana was released the following year.

Unused Maps#

An easy way to load maps is to use "Universal Unreal Engine 4 Unlocker", which "re-creates the in-game console (which is usually stripped out in released games)". The console command open will load a level, and ToggleDebugCamera allows one to get a better view of the area. The relevant paths within the .pak file have been provided.
