Professional teams provide the best localization

We're former game developers, so we understand you like no one else

For a large part of our lives, we’ve been developing games. When we wanted to take them global, we started looking for a localization tool. Couldn’t find one. That’s why we built a CMS localization platform ourselves.

Soon we gained our first customer - Warner Bros! Since then we’ve helped over 500 enterprises and developers with their game localization pipelines. Legendary, Doom, Batman Origins and Shadow of Mordor went internationally and reached millions of gamers with us - what if your game is the next big thing?

Localizing games for 10 years, we have established a large, reliable network of native speaking translators into 65+ language pairs. Now, we provide translation, localization QA, and CMS services for the game development industry. LocalizeDirect is based in Sweden and Vietnam with a number of sales, localization & QA managers working across the globe.
