Highly Customizable Workflows

Wordbee Gaming allows game developers to build custom localization workflows that can be adapted to different content types, such as dialogues, UI text, and in-game tutorials. This ensures that each content type is handled in the most efficient and appropriate way for high-quality translations.

Real-Time Collaboration

Enable real-time collaboration across localization teams, translators, and developers, allowing all stakeholders to work together on the same project simultaneously. This reduces bottlenecks and speeds up project completion, helping you deliver localized content quickly and efficiently.

Pivot Language Support

Wordbee supports the use of multiple pivot languages within a localization workflow. A common use case in the gaming industry, particularly for Asian game developers, involves creating the game in Japanese, then translating it to a raw English version. This initial English translation is then polished and refined to ensure accuracy and fluency. The finalized English version becomes the pivot language for translations into all other target languages.

Integration with Development Tools

Through the FLEX API, Wordbee Gaming integrates seamlessly with game development tools like Git and Jira, making it easy to synchronize localization efforts with ongoing game development. This integration enables continuous localization for agile development teams, ensuring that translations keep pace with new content.

Continuous Updates

Wordbee enables seamless continuous localization for live-service games and projects that require frequent updates, such as patches or downloadable content (DLC). The platform integrates directly with content management systems (CMS), automating the process of extracting content for translation and reintegrating localized versions. It includes Git integration, a live preview feature, and supports cloud storage connectors for Dropbox, Google Drive, Amazon AWS, and OneDrive, as well as FTP options, enabling efficient management of game assets.

Multimedia and File Format Support

Wordbee supports a wide variety of file formats, including text, audio scripts, subtitles, and graphic elements, making it suitable for localizing the diverse assets typically found in games. This is crucial for gaming localization, where text alone is often not enough.

Batch Uploading of Images from Excel

Wordbee enables the batch uploading of images linked to text strings directly from an Excel file. This allows localizers to see the images associated with each string, providing valuable visual context during translation. It ensures that translations align with the intended visuals, improving overall localization quality.

Scalability for Large Projects

Wordbee is built to handle large-scale localization projects, making it an ideal choice for game developers managing simultaneous global releases in multiple languages. Its robust support for large content volumes ensures that games can be localized for several regions at once without delays.
