THE PROJECT

Background and participation

The project sits within an overseas-market support programme for games in the Jeonbuk region of South Korea. Its published scope includes translation, localization and regional adaptation. SENIOR TRANS participated in related language-service work. This was an industry-support programme, not a public tender award.

The language challenge

Game text spans dialogue, interfaces, help content and live operations. A line can mean different things without its context, while character voices must remain coherent across releases.

LANGUAGE APPROACH

An approach shaped by the content

The following is an approach for comparable projects, provided to help scope a brief. It is not a record of this engagement’s internal delivery process.

01

Establish the context

Group strings by purpose and gather character notes, screenshots, variable rules and length limits. Resolve ambiguities that could change the player’s understanding.

02

Align terms and character voices

Create terminology for abilities, items and UI elements. Distinguish dialogue from instructions so that each has the right voice and level of clarity.

03

Review in context

Use a test build to check truncation, variables, line breaks and context. Record issues precisely for review by the development and language teams.

OUTCOMES AND ACCEPTANCE

What the public record establishes

The public notice establishes the programme’s purpose and scope, but does not provide game-release results or a translation acceptance finding that can be cited here. No sales uplift, ratings improvement or acceptance rate is claimed.
