Episode 74 - The Art of Localization (w/ Claudia Ricciuto)
Podcast:Official Atari Games Podcast Published On: Fri Mar 13 2026 Description: Localization is rarely a consumer-facing process. While we're far removed from the days of "all your base are belong to us", it's a critical component of any international game release. How do you make sure things make sense in each language? What's the difference between translation and localization? What's up with German? All of these questions and more are covered with our guest, Claudia Ricciuto (localization project manager), as we dive deep into what it takes to make a game comprehensible across multiple languages.
