We Understand What's Holding You Back
You've poured your creativity and effort into building something special. Your arcade game works beautifully, and players in your home market appreciate what you've created. The thought of expanding internationally is exciting, but also feels overwhelming.
Perhaps you're concerned about finding translators who truly understand gaming. Machine translation tools miss the nuances that make your dialogue engaging, and standard translation services might not grasp the specific terminology and context that matters in gaming.
There's also the worry about cultural adaptation. What if something that works perfectly in one region comes across differently elsewhere? How do you maintain your creative vision while ensuring content resonates with diverse audiences? These concerns are completely natural.
You might also feel uncertain about the process itself. Coordinating translation across multiple languages, managing revisions, and ensuring consistency can seem complicated. The investment of time and resources needed for quality localization feels significant, especially when you're not certain how to evaluate the results.
How We Address Your Unique Needs
Our approach combines linguistic expertise with deep understanding of gaming culture, creating translations that feel authentic to players while maintaining your creative vision.
Gaming-Specialized Translation
Our translators aren't just linguists—they're gamers and gaming industry professionals who understand the terminology, context, and culture of arcade games. They recognize when a phrase is game-specific slang versus literal text, and they know how to maintain the tone and personality that makes your content engaging.
This means your dialogue, instructions, and story elements translate accurately not just in meaning, but in feeling. The humor, excitement, or tension you intended comes through in every language.
Thoughtful Cultural Adaptation
Cultural consultation identifies elements that might need adjustment for different markets. This goes beyond translation to consider visual elements, color associations, character representations, and cultural references. We work collaboratively with you to determine what should adapt and what should remain consistent with your vision.
The goal is making your game feel native to each market without compromising its core identity. Players experience content that resonates with their cultural context while maintaining your creative intent.
Voice and Audio Localization
When your game includes voice elements, we coordinate with native speakers who deliver performances that match your original audio's energy and emotion. Recording sessions consider regional accents and pronunciation preferences to ensure audio feels authentic to local players.
This attention to audio detail creates an immersive experience where every element of your game feels professionally localized.
Contextual Quality Assurance
Translation validation happens within your actual game environment, not just in isolated text documents. Our quality assurance team plays through your game in each language, experiencing the content as players would. This catches context-specific issues that might not be apparent in text-only review.
Issues like text overflow in UI elements, unclear instructions within gameplay context, or dialogue that doesn't match character actions get identified and corrected before release.

Working together feels collaborative and supportive, with clear communication at every step of the process.

You'll feel supported and informed. Questions get answered promptly, and you have visibility into progress. The experience feels collaborative rather than transactional, with genuine care for your game's success in global markets.

How We Ensure Quality Results
Our Methodology in Action
Quality localization requires systematic attention to detail. Our approach combines professional expertise with proven processes that consistently deliver authentic results.
Translator Selection
Each project matches with translators who have demonstrated experience in gaming localization. Their portfolios show work on similar projects, and their cultural knowledge extends to understanding gaming communities in their regions.
Multi-Stage Review
Translation goes through linguistic review, cultural appropriateness assessment, and in-context testing. Each stage catches different types of issues, ensuring comprehensive quality control.
Reference Materials
We create project-specific glossaries and style guides that maintain consistency across all content. These references ensure terminology stays consistent even across large volumes of text.
Progress Tracking
Throughout the project, you have visibility into completion status for different content sections and languages. Regular updates keep you informed without requiring constant check-ins.
This transparency helps you plan your release timeline and coordinate localization with other development activities.
Measurable Quality
Quality assurance reports detail issues found and corrected, showing the thoroughness of our review process. You see exactly what was validated and how problems were resolved.
This documentation provides confidence that your localized content meets professional standards.
Realistic Timeline
Most arcade game localizations complete within 6-8 weeks for standard languages, depending on content volume. Complex projects with extensive dialogue or multiple languages may take longer, and we'll provide specific timeline estimates during consultation.
The timeline includes all stages from initial translation through final quality assurance, so you receive fully tested, ready-to-implement content. Rush options are available when needed, though standard timelines typically produce the best quality results.
Your Confidence Matters
Choosing a localization partner involves trust. You're sharing your creative work and investing in reaching new markets. We recognize the importance of that decision and want you to feel confident every step of the way.
Our commitment centers on delivering localization that meets your quality standards and serves your game's success. If the results don't align with expectations, we work with you to address concerns until you're satisfied with the outcome.
No-Obligation Discussion
Initial consultation involves no commitment. Share your project details, ask questions, and understand how we work before making any decisions.
Sample Evaluation
Review a sample translation before committing to the full project. This lets you evaluate our approach and quality firsthand.
Ongoing Support
Questions during implementation get answered promptly. We support your success even after project completion.
Quality Commitment
If any localized content doesn't meet professional standards or doesn't work correctly in context, we revise it until it does. This isn't about perfection being subjective—it's about delivering work that serves your game's success in each market.
Technical issues like text overflow, unclear instructions, or cultural inappropriateness get addressed as part of our quality assurance commitment. You shouldn't have to accept problems that affect player experience.
