Our game localization XP
LangLink Game is a professional game localization company. Whether an AAA title or indie game project, we can offer our personal service and adapt to your own tools and processes.
We not only localize your games but something underling your game: Epic, Unity, etc. It enhances our understanding of your games.
To us, video games are the ultimate form of art as they involve picturing and building fantastic or realistic worlds, composing original and moving music, writing compelling stories and can even be poetic.
It is the only medium that puts people at the centre of it and gives them enough power to interact with it and make it their own.
We believe in the magic of their words. "
