Ukrainian Localization: May 2020 (#56)

Greetings, Ukrainian localization fans!

Come rain or shine – Ukrainization of the Universe marches on! And if you want to know what was localized during May 2020 – continue reading.

Localization in Progress

Kingdom Come: Deliverance

The main game text of Kingdom Come: Deliverance is still being edited. Our editors, Andrii Kozhushko, Iryna Makovska, and Iryna Andrieieva do their best to deliver the Ukrainian translation to you ASAP not forgetting about the quality.

Furthermore, the translation of four DLC’s and additional text passages (interface, etc.) is in progress. Our most active volunteers during May were Bohdana Vozniuk, Olha Sushytska, and Mariia Polishchuk.

Baldur’s Gate 2

Translation of Game-of-million-words, Baldur’s Gate 2: Enhanced Edition has crossed the Rubicon.50% finished corresponds to half the battle and the numbers are amazing! To make it more precise, it’s approximately 600 thousand of words!

During May, our most significant contributors were Anastasia Rutylo, Sofia Shul, and Olena Androsyuk.

Last but not least, we revived our work on Banner Saga 3. For the present, we have only one editor here. Completing the work, we will try to create a Ukrainian language mod.

Literature

Outsider

The translation of Outsider, a comic book by Jim Francis, goes little by little. In May, we published up to the 136th page, though we already have more. All pages can be found on the project’s webpage.

Cyberpunk 2077

We`ve finished the translation of ‘The World of Cyberpunk 2077,’ and in a few months, it will be published by Vovkulaka. Hence, you have time to make a pre-order, if you have not made it yet.

And if you are a fan of Cyberpunk 2077 game and want to play it in Ukrainian, consider signing the petition for adding the Ukrainian language at Change.org. The same kind of petition can be found on the game developers’ website – gog.com.
