Our Work | Wordplay Localisation

Featured Adaptations

A closer look at how we handle immense scale, nuanced humor, and cultural sensitivity for major studio releases.

Epic Fantasy RPG 2.4M Words

Preserving Lore Across 12 Languages

For this massive open-world adventure, our primary focus was maintaining the distinct dialects of five different in-game factions. We built a comprehensive glossary mapping out historical terms, fictional geography, and weapon nomenclature to ensure total consistency from the main quest down to the smallest inventory item.

Simultaneous shipment across European and Asian markets.
Voice-over direction adapted for regional tone.

Indie Platformer Culturalisation

Adapting Humor for Global Audiences

Translating jokes is notoriously difficult. For this fast-paced indie hit, direct translation would have completely missed the mark. We assigned native creative writers to completely reimagine puns, pop-culture references, and visual gags so they landed with the same comedic impact in Spanish, Japanese, and Korean as they did in the original English.

Custom UI text scaling to fit character constraints.
Extensive linguistic QA to catch context errors.

Coverage

Genres We Handle

Role-Playing & MMOs

Massive word counts, complex branching dialogue trees, and deep lore glossaries. We manage the immense scale of RPGs using robust translation memory tools to ensure a spell cast in hour one is called the same thing in hour eighty.

Action & Shooters

High-octane pacing requires punchy, precise language. We focus on clear UI adaptation, rapid audio cue translations, and concise mission briefings that keep players in the action without bogging them down in text.

Strategy & Simulation

Accuracy is everything. Technology trees, unit statistics, and detailed tutorials must be translated with absolute technical precision so international players understand the mechanics just as well as the native audience.

Casual & Mobile

Frequent updates, strict character limits, and rapid turnaround times. We integrate directly with continuous delivery pipelines to localize seasonal events, shop updates, and push notifications seamlessly.

The Proof is in the Playtime

Quality localization isn't just about avoiding bad reviews; it's about unlocking entirely new player bases. Games optimized for local markets see higher retention, longer session times, and better community engagement. We treat every language addition as a launch into a new world.
