Case Study: Nexon America achieves consistent, streamlined game localization with Phrase Localization Platform

Taking Game Localization to New Heights

Nexon America, a global games publisher, localizes online, mobile, PC and console titles by translating in-game text, marketing and technical content from Korean, Japanese and Chinese into English and then into multiple European and other languages. Their localization team faces tight UI space, multiple source languages and countless invented in-game terms, all of which make maintaining consistent terminology and a seamless player experience difficult and costly to fix.

To address this, Nexon uses Memsource’s cloud platform with workflows for both vendor and in-house translation, leveraging translation memory and shared term bases. The result: stronger term consistency across languages, fewer costly fixes, and smoother gameplay localization—improving efficiency and preserving the player experience.
