Since Today is April 1st, BW has given us the April Fool’s day version of their Friday update… and it’s great.
The game will be shipped with a version localized in Shyriiwook! Official announcement here.
Quote from the page:
Since the initial announcement of the localized versions of Star Wars™: The Old Republic™, we’ve heard the growls and roars from the community requesting the game be translated for Wookiees, and we are pleased to announce that this dream is now becoming a reality.
From their subtle roar of sadness to the pleasant yelp of excitement, Wookiees are a role model for companionship, loyalty and respect, and we at BioWare and LucasArts want to show our appreciation. Therefore, all text in the game will be translated into Shyriiwook, and all voice-overs will be re-recorded by authentic, native Wookiee speakers.
Though the Shyriiwook version of The Old Republic is still in development, we have a sneak peek at some of the most dramatic moments in the game so you can see how these cinematics will play out for our Wookiee audience.
Be sure to watch the videos highlighting how much the Shryiiwook voice acting enhances the gameplay!
