Greetings, detectives!
Over the past four and a half years, the game Let Bions Be Bygones has undergone numerous iterations, both in terms of the game’s development and its presentation to the global public.
The amount and continuity of positive impressions have literally astounded us: You liked the art design, characters, hints of the story (which we carefully keep in spolier-free waters), voice acting... and you liked Gun. Because, of course, you did.
It was only natural to expect that audiences around the world would ask the logical question: “Will the game be translated into my language?”
The great news is we are now in the final stages to deliver Simplified Chinese, Japanese, French, German, Italian, and Spanish in-game localisations for early May. With over 80k+ words in this sprawling adventure, it’s certainly a colossal task and we want to get it 100% right.
We are working closely with our international localisation experts to retain the game’s unique humor, nuanced meanings and ‘tone’ per language, whilst giving our translators the creative freedom to deliver the BEST possible play experience for you.
It goes without saying that we’re incredibly thankful for your patience and understanding. We know how important localisation is to you, and it’s our top priority ‘update’ following the big launch on April 30th.
Cultural diversity is something that is woven into every location you will be able to visit during the game - The Pit is a real cultural melting pot that we are proud of, and it is of utmost importance to us to follow that by making the game as accessible as possible.
Going beyond our upcoming update for in-game localisations, fully voice-acted localisations is our ‘big hairy audacious goal’ if we can smash our launch goals. Your passion, energy and wishlist support each day until launch are truly appreciated!
Thank you for your great understanding and support so far, and stay tuned for future information about the localization of our game!
