Portuguese Translation/Localization
About Me
Howdy, I’m SoulSearch. I’ve been translating ROBLOX games for over two years now.
I’m a native Portuguese speaker, with a deep understanding of both Brazilian and European Portuguese. Combined with my high degree of proficiency in English, this grants me the opportunity to tackle a multitude of localization projects, ensuring nothing gets lost in translation!
By the way, I’m a member of the Roblox Localization Team , the most noteworthy translation group in Roblox.
I’m passionate about bringing people closer to games they otherwise might have missed out on, solely because they don’t understand English.
I’m also REALLY passionate about making sure people don’t cringe reading some barely understandable, automatically translated mess. Gamers deserve better
“How important is having my game in Portuguese?”
Here are some relevant facts taken from the Medium article “5 Keys to Understanding Brazilian Mobile Game Market” , published late 2020:
- Brazil is the 13th most profitable games market in the world (1st in Latin America).
Brazilians spend roughly $1.5 billion per year on games. This number is expected to grow. - Roblox is among the most downloaded games on Google Play and App Store in Brazil.
- Action, strategy and role-playing games are the popular types of games in Brazil.
- Only a small fraction of Brazilians (5%) speak proficient English. Thus, if you’re wondering whether you need to have your game translated to Portuguese, the answer is clear — if you don’t, you’ll be missing the majority of Brazilian players.
