Turkish Game Localization

This is Wordarch. The only game localization studio that can match the originality of your unique game in delightful Turkish.

Wordarch stands for one thing: the relentless pursuit of lossless localization.

For people who make and publish games.

We will carry you into Türkiye.

Indie game publishers and development studios that work with us.

WHAT MAKES US GOOD

Lossless localisation.
  • Remarkably good: positive reviews specifically about the good quality of localisation.
     

  • Player-focused: we care about immersion, flow, style, tone, nuance, balance, clarity, depth and accuracy to provide the best possible user experience.
     

  • Passionate & Professional: an effective combination which gives us profound sources of inspiration and motivation to keep localising the best games we love.
     

  • Resourceful & Ambitious: we never settle for the average. We don't just translate; we adapt, recalibrate, fine-tune, culturalise and iterate to recreate originality.
     

Good judgement, taste and style.
  • Pursuit of mastery: as Wordarch-ers, we aim right, stay sharp and improve our craft.

    Wordarch is not an agency, we don't outsource our work. We deliberately stay small to work on a select few projects that we are most passionate about.

     

  • Brand reputation: we are proud of our work and we are building a brand reputation to protect.
     

  • A wealth of experience: our roots go back to 2012 with many titles under our belt from our freelancing times.
     

  • Talent: we are no 'Mechanical Turks'. We are 'Young Turks'. We dedicate our hearts, minds and full attention to making your game delightfully Turkish.
     

Tried and tested service:
  • Client satisfaction: long-term and repeated collaboration on many games, Wordarch never lets down.
     

  • Peace of mind: culture-savvy know-how, no-nonsense approach, timely delivery, fixed pricing, unique expertise.
     

  • Better alternative: better prices and better results than agencies, without ever compromising on quality.
     

  • One-of-a-kind business: By combining exquisite quality of Turkish localization with local PR support and gathering a player community under our own media brand, we create a positive ratchet for the Turkish gaming culture in Turkey.

Turkish is one of the top 12 popular languages on Steam. Turkish localisation is highly valuable for Turkish people. It plays a vital role in the buying decision, especially now when gamers have to be more selective, so they are drawn to quality indie games amid pricier AAA titles. In 2024, choosing Turkish localisation aligns with a high-volume, low-margin, long-tail sales strategy. This requires a cost-effective service partner,  fine-tuned regional pricing, local PR support, and tasteful localisation for word-of-mouth buzz to resonate with local gaming media.


Wordarch Studio is ready to support you every step of the way."Steam favors products that are localized"* and Fortune favors the bold.

Doubling you. In Turkish.

* = 'Steam favors products that are localized' is a sentence directly taken from the Steamworks Documentation here. It's a nice, short guide by Steam for those considering localization.

SERVICES

Localization. Make sense.

1. Give them another great reason to buy your game.

2. Make it easy for them to truly enjoy it.

3. And make it so good that they talk about it.

This is what we do with Turkish localization.

Local PR. Make noise.

Press outreach: We create Turkish press releases, reach out to local journalists and distribute review keys to the right people for you.

Turkish Store copy translation: We rewrite your store copy in Turkish and let the game do the talking. We also localise assets and subtitle your trailers.

"We were able to access influencers and press that were normally inaccessible to us, and saw coverage we wouldn't get otherwise. PLUS they were great to work with -- responsive, attentive to detail, and communicative. Thank you, Wordarch, for helping Pupperazzi!"
