Altagram, the translation company which was found to have not credited staff who worked for years on Baldur’s Gate 3, has issued a lengthy public apology and a list of commitments to change.
In a statement posted to X, formerly Twitter, Altagram said that it had “come to our attention that the omission of translator credits from our contribution to Baldur’s Gate 3 has generated frustration and disappointment among the freelance translator community”.
Disappointment in the lack of creditation was initially directed at Baldur’s Gate 3 developer Larian. But in an exclusive statement given to Eurogamer yesterday, Larian said Altagram had failed to provide a full list of names, and that it was now working to ensure these were all added to the game in a forthcoming patch.
“We take full responsibility for the omission of our freelancers’ names and apologise for the effects that it had,” Altagram wrote in its statement today.
“We are learning from this experience and are reviewing the failures of our internal processes regarding credits. We would like to thank Larian for allowing us to quickly fix that error and update the credits section. The names of the Brazilian Portuguese translators will be included in an upcoming patch to the game.”
