LCP Localizations localizes mobile games with frequent updates, mainly strategy titles.
Clients include Lilith Games, its largest account, and 37Games. Each language is handled by dedicated translators who stay on the game for its whole life cycle, supported by lead editors, LQA testers, engineers and project managers.
Live-ops localization
In-game localization
Mobile games follow the same process as full game localization: a brief, a dedicated team, glossary and translation memory, translation with queries, lead editor review and automated QA. Localized text is then checked in context on mobile devices and emulators through localization QA, to catch truncation and layout issues on small screens.
Most of the studio's mobile work is on strategy games, 4X in particular. It also covers gacha and idle games.
Store pages, ASO and ads
Store descriptions and keywords are localized for each market to support app store optimization (ASO). Ads, marketing copy and player notifications are localized with the same glossary as the game.
Community support
Native-language player support and community management for each market, provided with a partner studio.
AIPE for non-creative text
For limited budgets or secondary markets, projects can combine full localization for events, lore and marketing with AI post-editing (AIPE) for menus, hotfix notes and other non-creative text. AI is used only at the client's request.
Case study: Lilith Games
Lilith Games localizes its mobile strategy portfolio, including 4X titles, with LCP Localizations. Game names are covered by NDA. Alongside regular content updates, the fixed translators for each language handle hotfix projects: updates, fixes, marketing messages and player notifications, each completed within 2 to 3 hours.
