This May, PTW Japan will merge with our Japanese localization studio entalize to strengthen its one-stop game development offerings.

“While entalize has been a development partner for many years, this recent change in structure will make working with the talented team easier for our clients,” said PTW Chairman Teppei Tachibana.

PTW CEO Deborah Kirkham agrees, stating “The legacy of entalize’s work speaks for itself. They have always been instrumental to our business, and we are thrilled to streamline the process of working with them for our clients.”

Founded in 2006, entalize specializes in Japanese localization from multiple languages and Japanese voice production for the entertainment industry. It has assisted some of the most popular AAA titles such as Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Far Cry 5, Cyberpunk 2077, FIFA 20, Borderlands 3, and Metro Exodus. entalize prioritizes client-first solutioning to eliminate language barriers from the games entertainment industries.

Takuto Terao, PTW’s acting President of the Asian Region, concluded “This merger is a win-win for game development across Japan. Our shared experience will strengthen the offerings of both partners for all our clients.”
