|gameinfo = The third game in the Star Ocean series, Star Ocean: Till the End of Time is set 400 years after the events of Star Ocean: The Second Story. Fayt Leingod, an ordinary college student, is vacationing on a resort planet which suddenly gets attacked by aliens. A few escapes later, his escape pod crash lands on an undeveloped planet, he gets rescued by a member of a resistance group named Quark, they crash on another undeveloped planet, and they get caught up in local politics. The repercussions of the alien attack, and the reasons for it, are going to catch up with Fayt again... | |gameinfo = The third game in the Star Ocean series, Star Ocean: Till the End of Time is set 400 years after the events of Star Ocean: The Second Story.

** <b>Battle Trophy Data Update:</b> The save file restriction can be bypassed using the Memory Card Folder system.

* There is a section in the dungeons of Barr Mountains that requires you to "play tunes" by pressing the circle button to activate a tune. The game has 4 tunes mapped to the button, differentiated by tap/hold and light/hard pressure. However, most gamepads and keyboards only send a fixed pressure, therefore if you attempt playing tunes normally you will always get the hard tap/hold tunes. To get around this an additional button needs to be mapped to circle as well but configured to deliver "light" pressure. This is done by opening the Controllers plugin configuration and setting a unused or rarely used input(like the button set to select or L2) and (re)mapping it to the circle button, and setting the sensitivity to 0.500 or thereabouts. In-game use that button to deliver "light" tap/hold tunes while the regular circle button can be used normally to deliver "hard" tap/hold tunes. | * There is a section in the dungeons of Barr Mountains that requires you to "play tunes" by pressing the circle button to activate a tune.

|Description=A bloom effect misplacement issue occurs when running the game at a higher than native resolution. It's difficult to spot since the game doesn't have many locations that use bloom effect. A place to observe this is Arkives (Disc 2, late game). | |Description=A bloom effect misplacement issue occurs when running the game at a higher than native resolution.
