LC’s Game Localization Process & Localization Kit
Step 1: Requirement Analysis & Game Scope
We analyze your game type, genre, target audience, and platforms (mobile, PC, console). This helps define localization scope, languages, and technical requirements.
Step 2: Content Audit & Localization Kit Preparation
All game assets—including strings, scripts, UI text, and media—are extracted and organized. We create a localization kit with context notes, screenshots, character descriptions, and style guides to ensure accurate translation.
Step 3: Glossary & Gaming Terminology Setup
We develop game-specific glossaries covering character names, items, abilities, and gameplay terminology. This ensures consistency across all localized versions.
Step 4: Translation & Cultural Adaptation
Our gaming linguists translate and adapt content to reflect cultural nuances, humor, slang, and regional preferences while preserving gameplay intent and narrative flow.
Step 5: Multimedia Localization & Engineering
Audio, subtitles, UI elements, and game assets are localized and integrated into the game environment. We ensure proper synchronization, formatting, and technical compatibility.
Step 6: Localization Testing (LQA) & QA Validation
We conduct linguistic QA, functional testing, and in-context gameplay testing. This ensures all localized elements perform correctly without bugs, truncation, or inconsistencies.
Step 7: Launch & Continuous Localization Support
Post-launch, we support updates, new content releases, seasonal events, and live game environments. This ensures consistent player experience as your game evolves globally.
