Behind the scenes of localization, or How Cyberpunk spoke Ukrainian

Localization is not only about translating the game, but also about reproducing its world in the language of the player. In the lecture, I will talk about how this process takes place on the example of Cyberpunk 2077 - from high-level planning to release and post-release support. Let's talk about the concept of creative adaptation, and also consider the case of Ukrainian localization as a phenomenon in Ukrainian game development and beyond.
