Spanish is one of the most widely spoken languages among gamers. The first decision is the variant: European Spanish or a neutral Latin American Spanish that works across the region.

1What makes Spanish localization hard

  • Spain or Latin America. Vocabulary, forms of address (vosotros vs. ustedes) and slang differ; we agree the target with you first.
  • Inverted punctuation. ¿Questions? and ¡exclamations! need opening marks, which your font and line breaking must handle.
  • Length. Spanish usually runs longer than English; UI strings are checked against your limits.
  • Gender agreement with variables is handled by rephrasing rather than awkward slashes.

2How the work is done

Every line goes through five passes, and a person owns each one: we mark the jokes and wordplay, do an early pass for terminology, rewrite by hand whatever sounds translated, run a late pass against your UI limits, and finish with a final read. Tools keep terms consistent; a translator reads every line in context.

3Price, timing and what you get

  • €90 per language, fixed, for up to 5,000 words — agreed before we start.
  • 1–7 working days per language, depending on volume. You get a firm date with the price.
  • Free test first: up to 600 words translated within five working days, no payment, no obligation.
  • 30% upfront, 70% after you have run the localization in your own build.
  • Free corrections for as long as the game is yours — patches, new lines, renamed items.

Your files come back in the structure you sent: JSON, CSV, XLSX, PO/POT, XML, RESX, YAML, XLIFF, Unity or Unreal string tables. Keys, tags and placeholders like {playerName}, %s and <color> stay untouched, so the build drops straight in. A glossary of the terms we settled comes with it.
