Niko Stat of The Week: A Third of MENA-3 Gamers Prefer Full Localization in Games

 

Localization is very important to MENA gamers, according to Niko survey.

Gamers in Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Egypt were asked to rate the importance of localization across 6 key metrics including voice, text, character ethnicity, cultural themes, localized events, and music/soundtrack.​

We found that a considerable level of localization (characterized as a game that has localized across at least 4 of the 6 key metrics) is preferable with two-thirds of gamers feeling so. ​We observe localization in every market that we cover and ready to help you to succeed with games localization.
