Localization for Westwood Shadows
Hello,
After our release, we got a couple of complaints about missing subtitles for the game.
From the start, we had a section under Early Access notes that mentioned that we'll be uploading all the listed languages for subtitles and that was one of the reasons Westwood Shadows was released in Early Access.
We removed the languages from the store page in order to avoid any further misunderstandings.
We will be adding them one at a time.
We are currently translating for the below languages:
Greek
French
German
Spanish - Spain
Russian
Simplified Chinese
Portuguese - Brazil
If you want to suggest any other languages please mention them below in the comments section.
Thank you RedSoup
