Every year, the market for video games continues to grow and the industry, now valued at $65 billion a year, is increasingly international; an estimated 50% of video game sales now come from outside the United States.
As such, developers and publishers are acutely aware of the need for proper localization – whether for quirky, standalone indie titles or earthshaking blockbuster series – yet few know the practices that ensure the most perfect products at the lowest costs.
