WLIN: Stay Ahead of the Game
March 2, 2023 @ 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM
As the localization industry continues to thrive and mature, the Women In Localization India Chapter touches diverse areas for localizers and people from all sides of industries interested in exploring various verticals of localization. We are excited to welcome you all to our first event of 2023 with a much-awaited topic of Game Localization.
Game localization, popularly known as a fun field, has a goal to make a game feel like it was made for the local market, increasing its appeal and success, and also comes with some challenges to overcome. The horizon of focus areas can vary from text expansion, testing and quality assurance, to technical limitations, cultural sensitivity, and linguistic complexities. So how the gaming companies are getting it done, and what are the metrics establishing the value of localization in gaming? What are the ways to advance a career in the gaming field already being a localizer? There would be many more questions like this popping up in your mind when you hear the name Game Localization.
Sign up for this event and stay tuned with us to gain insights and inspiration from the experience of seasoned industry peers and don’t miss a chance to get an opportunity to discover the fundamentals, latest industry trends, career advancement, specifications, and real examples from localized games to stay ahead of the game.
