For over 6 years’ we have hosted Quality Assurance and Localization professionals from the gaming community in Europe and North America and have had the privilege of seeing the impact on game quality. What has become clear through our forums’, which are attended internationally, is that game quality is key if you are to meet your players’ needs, increase player lifecycle and ultimately see success.

This is no easy feat, with new tools and processes being introduced, strains on capacity and budgetary limits, not to mention internal cultural attitudes which need to be educated on the value of QA and Localization, all competing to be addressed. Given the explosion of the APAC market and unique regional intricacies to be taken into account when testing, it is clear that game quality is critical to continue to grow and satisfy the player community.
