A list of everything removed from this remaster

[Bitwolf]

-Licensed songs Now patched!
-A Saejima costume (replaced with another, to not offend china)
Original[media.discordapp.net] New[media.discordapp.net]Now patched!

-Reminisce videos (most likely due to using PS2 graphics.)

-In store magazines are no longer readable, due to licenses expiring. (You can still read the covers, the manga was untranslated, so its not really a loss.)

-The Don Quijote theme, this was in all 3 remasters at launch, even in english, but was removed via patch, most likely to keep it the same as the pc/xbox versions that can no longer use the song Now patched!

-Pachinko machines (They however, are in the XBOX version, with achievement, so this makes zero sense.)

(It should be noted that excluding the licensed songs, all these changes were made in the japanese version, they were not altered by Sega of America.)

All of them, they tend to be used in the games intro, outro, and speical fights.

In the sense we never had them to begin with outside Japan, the music should be 1:1 with the original PS3 localization.

The music stays in Japan, all licenced tracks are gone from outside the region.

it literally says excluding the licensed music, sega of America legally had to remove it for the western versions. It doesn’t matter since I literally linked the patch to re add them into 3 in the post.
