Sims 4 Ukrainian Localisation


Sims 4 Ukrainian Localisation
The Issue
Ukraine is the largest country in Europe with a population of 40 million people and yet despite this, there are not many video games with Ukrainian localisation. Ukrainians have to choose either English or Russian localisations when they want to have fun with their favorite video game. This includes Sims 4.
Ukrainian neighbor Poland with a population of 38 million people has Polish localisation available. Ukrainians also need a localisation in their native Ukrainian language for the full immersion in the game. Not to mention that Ukrainian language has certain features which are not found in other languages and which will only enrich the gaming experience and fun of Ukrainian gamers.
Another example. Despite the fact that Scandinavian languages are mutually intelligible, in countries such as Norway, Denmark, Sweden, Norwegian, Danish and Swedish localisations were created. Not to mention Finland, which also has a Finnish version of the game, although the official lang for 5 million citizens is also Swedish.
Adding Ukrainian localisation on Sims 4 will immediately hit Ukrainian media headings and increase interest to the game. This will also skyrocket sales of Sims 4 in Ukraine and other countries with Ukrainian diaspora as well as decrease piracy. No longer Ukrainians will have to download the pirated versions in order to fullfil their natural and undeniable right and desire to have a video game in their native Ukrainian language.
Therefore, we, Ukrainian gamers, politely ask Electoronic Arts Inc. (EA) and Maxis to have a team of professionals do the Ukrainian localisation which will only benefit all parties - Electronic Arts Inc. (EA), Maxis and Ukrainian gamers.
We also kindly ask you who is reading this to support this petition by signing it as well as sharing this with your friends, thus helping restore great justice and defend an unalienable right of the people to have their favorite game available in their language.
