ANNOUNCING THE 2015 NORTH AMERICAN GAME QA & LOCALIZATION FORUM – The world’s only two-day QA & localization-dedicated meeting for the games industry
BOOM! It’s happening again – Gaming IQ announced the initial speakers and program for the upcoming North American iteration of it’s acclaimed Game QA & Localization forum.
With the number of gamers increasing exponentially both in proficiency and diversity, and bigger, faster, more complex and realistic games than ever before, across all platforms developers and publishers simply cannot afford to get the QA and Localization of titles wrong!
This is where the Game QA & Localization forum 2015 comes in.
Now in its 3rd year, and the 6th event in the Game QA and Localization series, it is the world’s only two-day forum entirely dedicated to QA and localization within the gaming industry at the most senior level.
