Video Game Localization & Video Game Translation

The video gaming industry is the poster child for globalization. The popularity of video games transcends geography, class, and culture such that virtually every gaming company must operate globally to capture any significant share of this $32+ billion dollar industry. The introduction of gaming consoles and handheld devices regularly creates a global media frenzy. In addition, explosive consumer demand and shrinking lifecycles for each version of popular games means products with faster to-market deliveries result in millions of dollars of additional revenue. The pace of the industry and the shrinking video game lifecycle highlight the need for rapid video game localization to satisfy the insatiable demand.

To succeed in this highly competitive industry, gaming companies require experienced video game localization support that delivers highly-nuanced content displayed within bleeding-edge software. The content in most games is developed for the tastes of consumers who adopt new lingo and idiomatic expressions regularly and demand that the games they play have the same level of cultural awareness that defines their lifestyles.
