The new trailer for sandbox strategy game Antimatter shows off the epic scale

Back in 2020 the strategy game Antimatter sure looked exciting during the Kickstarter, with the developer steadily building up all the promised features.

To begin 2025, they've put up a new showcase trailer of various bits done on the game during 2024. The trailer really helps to show off the immense scale of it. The kind of mega scale you don't see many games try and it does look like it will be quite an interesting one to play.

One bit shared in the recent update on Steam, that some players might frown upon, is that they're using the "GPT API" to translate the game into various languages. As they said:

I have initiated localization of the game and about 1500 string keys are bound already. I am glad to say that the game and all mods will be very easy to translate (a single file).
I speak French and can muddle through a bit of English, so both languages are included as core languages.

For the rest of the languages, I wrote a program that automatically translates the game through the GPT API by incorporating already translated languages and context. The more core languages, the better the generated translations will be. I am confident that after some training, most languages will have a proper translation.

Perhaps they will earn enough from it to get real translations done by people who actually understand context and the languages properly.

They're not giving an update on when it will release but in a previous update said "All I can say is that the game, the software, is in excellent technical shape, and I am very optimistic".
