This is a summary of all Enhanced Edition translation projects. The name in parentheses is the project's coordinator. Teams are composed of volunteers and very welcoming of new members, so we encourage you to get in touch with the lead if you would like to help out; don't worry if the summary doesn't specifically say the team is looking for a particular role. If you would like to volunteer for a project that is not listed, or whose lead is not listed for various reasons, please e-mail amber@beamdog.com.
