Risk of Rain 2 Localization Update Arrives With 10 New Languages

Risk of Rain 2 has received a localization update that brings 10 new languages to the game.

Hopoo Games, developers of Risk of Rain 2, have announced today that the game is now localized in 10 additional languages. This means that even more players can now play the game in their native language. The new languages include Simplified Chinese, Korean, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, and Turkish.

“We’ve been lucky enough to have the support of fans from all over the world for the Risk of Rain series,” said Paul Morse of Hopoo Games. “It has always been our goal to include more languages and be able to welcome players from all corners of the globe to our community.”

Risk of Rain 2 has sold more than a million copies to date and is the surprise indie smash of the year so far. Risk of Rain 2 brought the original games cooperative roguelike action to 3D, and pits teams of survivors against waves of alien creatures and boss fights. The random nature of builds and items means that runs need to be adapted to rather than planned. So far, the games fun mix of action and luck have been a smash hit.

As well as localization, this update also brings plenty of bug fixes, which you can read below;

• Director no longer stops spawning monsters late in the game
• Director logic in selecting/skipping monsters to spawn has been cleaned up
• Reorganize fall damage code to try to fix issues with the server reporting false fall damage hits
• Fix an issue where every item pickup saved immediately to disk, causing a stutter
• Picking up new equipment with Gesture of the Drowned no longer fires every frame
• Fix bosses and monsters sometimes spawning behind closed gates on Wetland Aspect
