Algomatic Unveils the Quality Checker for Game Localization

On November 27, 2025, Algomatic, a Tokyo-based company, introduced the AlgoGames Translation Quality Checker. This innovative service utilizes unique AI technology tailored for game translation to meticulously review localized text. By identifying issues such as mistranslations, awkward phrasing, inconsistent tones, culturally inappropriate expressions, and ethical risks, this tool aims to enhance the overall quality and efficiency of game localization processes.

Background of the Service

In the competitive global gaming market, localization quality significantly impacts player immersion and experience. These translations require thorough validation across various dimensions, from simple mistranslations to alignment with character style guides, appropriate localization of idioms, and cultural or ethical considerations.

However, the complexity of this task demands not only advanced language skills but also a profound understanding of game narratives. Many companies struggle with time limitations and resource constraints, leading to overlooked errors that can diminish the quality of the gaming experience.

To tackle these challenges, Algomatic has refined the accuracy and speed of its proprietary AI tool through the translation of over 100 game titles. The result is a specialized quality checker that promises reliability and versatility, leading to the launch of the Translation Quality Checker.

Overview of the New Service

The Translation Quality Checker operates by simply providing the original texts, translated documents, and related materials. Within a minimum turnaround time of two business days, clients receive detailed, high-precision feedback. This AI tool does not generate translations; it strictly focuses on quality assessment and enhancement suggestions. As such, it offers an ideal solution for companies cautious about using generative AI outputs.

Benefits of Implementation

• - Cost Reduction: Optimize labor costs associated with quality checks, contributing to improved profitability.
• - Increased Efficiency: Alleviate the workload of staff, allowing them to focus on more creative and value-added tasks.
• - Stable Translation Quality: The AI detects subtle errors that may be overlooked by the human eye, thereby enhancing the overall standard of the work.

Key Check Items

1. Accuracy (mistranslations, omitted translations, misaligned lines)
2. Fluency (grammatical errors, redundancy)
3. Style (character tone consistency, style guide violations)
4. Cultural Appropriateness (literal translations of idioms, numerical formats)
5. Fact Check and Ethical Risks (misrepresented facts, legal considerations)

The feedback includes not only pinpointed issues but also correction suggestions, rationales, and priority levels for review. This empowers translators to quickly identify critical areas and make speedy revisions while encouraging thoughtful improvements to their work, fostering creativity.

Sample Checks

For instance, errors detected may include:

• - Cultural Compatibility Check: Detecting the literal translation of an idiom that does not resonate with English-speaking audiences.
• - Style Check: Identifying inconsistencies in character tone.
• - Accuracy Check: Noticing inconsistencies in terminology.
• - Fact and Ethical Check: Highlighting inappropriate language or misrepresented ideas.
