Services

Localization Services

We handle every part of your game’s localization, from translating in-game text (quests, NPC dialogue, skill descriptions) to adapting user interfaces (UI) for different languages. Our cultural adaptation team tweaks humor, gestures, and references to fit regions like Asia, Europe, or Latin America. We also ensure technical compatibility across PC, console, mobile, and cloud platforms, handling challenges like text rendering in Unreal Engine or iOS font limits.

Voiceover and Dubbing

Our voice artists and subtitlers bring your game’s audio to life in 100+ languages. We cast actors with regional accents (e.g., Brazilian Portuguese vs. European Portuguese) and synchronize dialogue to animations using tools like Adobe Audition. For subtitles, we ensure readability and timing, even in fast-paced scenes, so players stay immersed.

Quality Assurance and Testing
  • Linguistic Checks: Verifying translations in-context (e.g., dialogue trees, UI menus).
  • In-Game Testing: Playing your game to ensure localized text fits UI layouts and doesn’t cause crashes.
  • Cultural Reviews: Flagging region-specific issues (e.g., inappropriate humor, gestures). This reduces localization-related bugs by 40% on average.
Interpretation Services
  • Live Chat Translation: Tools for multiplayer games, enabling seamless communication.
  • Event Support: On-site interpreters for game launches, esports tournaments, or developer panels.
  • Remote Assistance: Voice or text interpreters for player support teams, resolving issues faster across regions.

 Types of Translation in the Gaming Industry

UI Translation

We translate every part of the game's user interface (UI), including menus, buttons, icons, and on-screen text. This ensures players can easily navigate your game in their language. We also adjust layouts and designs to fit longer text (like in German or Finnish) or right-to-left languages (like Arabic). This means your UI looks polished and professional everywhere.

Chat Translation

Chat translation focuses on translating in-game chat and voice chat, allowing players from different linguistic backgrounds to communicate effectively. This is particularly important in multiplayer games, where real-time communication is crucial for teamwork and collaboration. Our chat translation services provide instant and accurate translations, enhancing the overall gaming experience.

Subtitle and Dubbing Translation

For games with voice acting, subtitles, dubbing, we provide high-quality subtitles and dubbing in 100+ languages, ensuring that players can fully understand the game's story and dialogue. Our translators pay close attention to cultural nuances and idiomatic expressions to ensure that the subtitles and dubbing feel natural and authentic in the target language.

Technologies We Use

AI-Powered Translation
We use artificial intelligence to provide fast and accurate translations, significantly reducing turnaround times, cutting costs, and improving translation quality. Our AI-powered translation portal can handle large volumes of text and scale to the specific requirements of your game.
Speech-to-Text & Text-to-Speech
For games with lots of voice dialogue, we use AI and Machine Learning to translate speech instantly. This keeps conversations smooth in fast  scenes, making voice acting feel natural in languages like Japanese or German.
Translation APIs

We integrate with APIs like DeepL to automate in-game text updates. When you add new quests or patches, translations are ready within hours, not days.

Machine Learning
Our systems analyze your game’s dialogue and player chat to predict context (e.g., sarcasm, humor). This reduces errors in tricky scenarios, like translating a joke from Korean to Spanish.
Workflow Tools
We use our own developed portal to track progress, so you can see updates in real time. For UI testing, we use Figma, Photoshop, to simulate layouts in languages like Arabic (right-to-left) or Chinese (dense text).
