Knights! As you've seen on the public roadmap, we've been working on translations for Cyber Knights: Flashpoint. We're excited to have reached a milestone where we can offer preview builds for the translated game in French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, and Spanish. These are early, beta versions of the translated text -- we need your help to evaluate their quality and see where we should be making changes to give as many speakers of these languages as possible the best experience. Early feedback from our small handful of initial volunteers has already been extremely valuable; now we just need more input so we can continue to improve.

Are you bilingual? Let us know!

If you're a native speaker of another language in our community who's also proficient in English, please fill out this Google Form to let us know. If you're fluent in one of the five languages we've currently translated the game to - French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, and Spanish - you could get early access to the translated game. If you're fluent in a language we haven't yet translated to, it helps us see where there's demand to translate into other languages, and you'll be first in line for an early look if we do.

Work Closely with Our Team

Right now, the community translation team is helping us pin down key game terms for the glossary to ensure that the best balance of literal translations vs cyberpunk-themed slang and cross-lingual gaming terminology is achieved. We'd love you to collaborate with us to review UI and dialogue translations, offer feedback on how game-specific "special" terms should be translated, and ensure that the translations accurately capture the tone and setting of Cyber Knights.

Launch Translation Plans

We would love to launch the game with ready-to-play, 90%+ quality translations for French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese and Spanish. We're working with the community to make sure these translations are truly ready to shine! But depending on how long this takes - prioritizing quality over marketing deadlines - we may or may not have finished translations at launch. If not, we won't actively market the game in those languages at launch. But, we will still make the available translation branches of the game public and available to all players at that time, and we will do language-specific launches as we're able to reach that quality threshold for each. We are excited and open to translating the game into other languages as well! But we're a tiny team and we had to start somewhere. Please wishlist the game and spread the word to others in your region if you'd like us to translate it into your native language, and complete the Google Form to show your interest in helping review the game in your language. If you have any questions about joining the translation project, you can reach out to us here on Steam or DM Liviana (username is @liviana) in our Discord.

Explore the dystopian cyberpunk future of 2231 as you command a company of shadow mercenaries working for the highest bidder. Cyber Knights wraps a world full of consequential story choices and significant character development around a rich core of classic and new mechanics. The game combines tactical elements like stealth, hacking and tense combat with strategic features like base building, contact management and in-depth squad customization. Cyber Knights invites you to jack in and explore a unique cyberpunk world and the immersive, human stories of your merc team in the dark future of 2231.

• Turn-based Tactics: Deep and tactical gameplay using a turn-based, gridless third-person combat simulator. Cover! Overwatch! Recoil!
  
• Dynamic Cyberpunk Story: Unique interwoven narrative with depth, meaningful player choices and hundreds of hours of gameplay
  
• Sophisticated Missions: Combine stealth, hacking and combat across multi-stage missions. Gain pre-mission advantages from Contacts
  
• Endless of Builds: Experiment with endless combos of Jobs, cyberware, weapons and gadgets to build the perfect team
  
• Evolving Characters: Your team evolves as the story, your choices and battle leave lasting wounds, add Traits and threaten to strip their humanity
  
• Safehouse Base Building: Construct a custom safehouse and upgrade rooms such as weapon shop, hund kennel and medical bay.

Cyber Knights strikes a unique tone with a futuristic setting that has passed through the messy near-future to arrive at dystopian 2231. Man-made environmental disasters have ravaged our biosphere. Artificial consciousness has been created, subsequently murdered, and then strictly outlawed at a global level. Megacorporate colonies and research stations dot the solar system from Venus to Jupiter. Quantum computing has radically altered the digital landscape and the very meaning of privacy and digital security.

The game's threaded stories originate from both inside and outside your team -- weaving together threads from your hired mercenaries, criminal connections and history that just won’t die. These stories operate on three interconnected and at times overlapping levels -- personal stories (your team), contact stories (your employers) and event stories (city-wide).

And every choice you make and mission you run will impact your character's permanent Traits, changing them in both subtle and big ways. Their stories and your choices combine to create a unique narrative for every game, every Knight and every team.


The second game our studio created, Cyber Knights RPG, took hundreds of thousands of gamers on an gritty cyberpunk roller-coaster, trying to get rich or go down shooting. The classic Cyber Knights has always had a huge following within our community and we are xcited to come back to the world and stories we started creating there so many years ago with an all new game, Cyber Knights: Flashpoint.

We’re weaving together the genre’s classic themes with the unique setting and history of Cyber Knights to create some of the most cutting, gripping and human stories we’ve ever told. Betrayal, sacrifice, trading away humanity for an advantage, living fast and dying young, revenge and testing the bonds of friendship and trust -- it's all here under the New Boston dome.
