Language Update CL#10408

Inspector Schmidt - The Ebbing · published 12 Sep 2025, 12:20 UTC · build 19928233

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

With this update, we’re expanding language support: In addition to German, English, French, Italian, and Spanish, the game is now available in Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Turkish, Ukrainian, Russian, Polish, and Chinese. We’ve also achieved further performance improvements for an even smoother gameplay experience. The translations were machine-generated and manually corrected where possible. Unfortunately, we don’t have a native speaker for every language on our team – so we truly appreciate it if you report any translation errors. We will make sure to correct them and include fixes in future patches.

Build Version 10408

This update contains various improvements and fixes.

Gameplay & AI

  • Reworked NPC and monster locomotion for smoother movement and more reliable pathfinding.
  • Fixed guard behavior so patrols and reactions are more consistent.
  • Improved animation system stability; refactoring for thread safety reduces hitches in busy scenes.
  • Updated the in-game time actor for more consistent timing.

UI & Navigation

  • Improved controller/keyboard navigation in the Main Menu and Settings screens.
  • Adjusted menu focus behavior to prevent unwanted auto-selection when opening menus.

Localization

  • Added Chinese language support.
  • Expanded and updated Asian localizations.
  • Filled in missing Polish translations.
  • Restored missing Russian strings.
  • New languages are now properly packaged and selectable.

Fonts & Text Rendering

  • Fixed missing characters in Asian fonts to ensure complete text display.
  • General font updates and asset reorganization to improve consistency across languages.

Online & Plugins

  • Updated the online services plugin to enhance connectivity and future compatibility.
  • Streamlined plugin structure to make future updates smoother.
  • Disabled the Savefile Editor plugin in shipping builds.

Technical Improvements

  • Significant internal content synchronization and cleanup to support faster, more reliable releases.
  • Improved internal plugin update tooling and developer menus.
  • Various file moves and repository housekeeping.

Note: Due to internal asset reorganization, this update may have a larger download size than usual.
