Localization translation occupies an important position in translation companies, covering multiple fields such as software, websites and games. Its core goal is to adjust the content according to the cultural environment of a specific region. The purpose of game localization translation is mainly to overcome language and cultural barriers and help game products to be better promoted.

　　1. Specific requirements for game localization translation

　　The language style needs to be more lively: Game localization requires a more lively language style than ordinary translation, especially for young players. With the addition of trendy language, games can attract more players' attention, so the language in the game should be close to popular trends.

　　Ensure translation accuracy: In the game, the word "副本" may have different translations, such as "dungeon" or "instance". The translation must be accurate and in line with the game background. Therefore, game localization translation requires precision to ensure the correct communication of terms.

　　Achieve true localization: In the process of game going overseas, the key to mobilizing players' interest lies in whether it can be truly localized. The localization here not only requires that the translation of the names, equipment and props in the game should be in line with the language habits of the players to avoid making them feel obscure and difficult to understand, but also effectively mobilize the interest of the players and make the game more popular.
