The Scale of the Work

Realindustry is not a simple game to translate. Every material has a real chemical formula. Every NEXUS line carries a specific narrative tone that builds across 34 dialogue entries. Every Registry entry has a voice. Numbers speak better than words:

Combined across all 7 non-English translations:

  • 24,122 translated string entries

  • 522,540 words across Latin-script languages

  • 3,131,049 individual letters and characters

  • 5,644 KB of localization data

  • 116,260 CJK characters in the Chinese translation

  • ~43.5 hours of typing at 200 words per minute

That last number doesn't include research, review, lore consistency checks, or the fact that NEXUS had to sound ominous in all 8 languages.

What Was Translated

  • All UI and interface strings — menus, buttons, tooltips, notifications

  • 34 NEXUS dialogue entries — each with a specific narrative arc requiring careful tone preservation

  • All Registry entries — classified corporate documents with embedded narrative

  • 231 real materials with descriptions, chemical formulas, and historical background

  • 352 production recipes with scientific descriptions and chemical reaction formulas

  • 80+ achievements with unique flavor texts

  • The full tutorial narrative

  • All research tree entries

  • Building descriptions and energy source details

  • Lore-heavy Terminus and Registry fragments

Language Selection

You can change language at any time in Settings → General → Interface Language. No restart required.

NEXUS processes in all languages. The factory runs regardless. Build. Produce. Continue. Realindustry
