MOLFETTA, Italy, May 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — In today’s $200+ billion global video games market, reaching international audiences is no longer optional, yet many developers and publishers still struggle with one persistent problem: delivering truly immersive, culturally accurate experiences across multiple languages without delaying launches, inflating costs, or compromising quality.
The Localisation Challenge Facing Game Studios
Subpar translations break immersion, harm player reviews, and leave revenue on the table. Tight deadlines, technical complexities, and the need for genuine cultural adaptation make localisation one of the most frustrating bottlenecks in the development cycle.
The Solution: Premium Expertise from 1Stop Translations
1Stop Translations, a trusted premium provider of linguistic localisation and professional translation services, is now bringing its proven international leadership directly to the video games sector.
With more than 20 years of specialised experience, ISO 9001, ISO 17100 and ISO 18587 certifications, and a team of professional linguists who are also passionate gamers, the company delivers premium video game localisation services that feel native rather than translated.
Proven Results: Real Game Localisation Success Stories
This approach is already delivering measurable success for several titles through expert video game localisation:
- Sliding Heroes by Silent Chicken: The Steam Store page was expertly adapted into Spanish, French, Chinese, Japanese and Korean, while the in-game content received complete localisation in Spanish and French. This targeted strategy helped the puzzle-adventure title connect instantly with diverse audiences and accelerate international adoption.
- Big Hops by Luckshot Games: The vibrant 3D platformer was localised into Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese and Russian. The culturally attuned translations enhanced player retention and contributed to the title’s solid cross-market performance. This also led to the title achieving an excellent Metacritic score of 79/100.
Strengthening Industry Presence in 2026
To meet developers and publishers face to face, 1Stop Translations is excited to announce two major commitments:
- Exhibiting at Gamescom 2026 (26–30 August, Cologne, Germany) — Europe’s premier gaming trade fair.
- Official Silver Sponsor of Digital Dragons 2026 (17–19 May, Kraków, Poland) — the leading B2B games development conference.
These appearances underscore the company’s commitment to supporting indie studios and established publishers alike.
