There is a new array of tasks requiring new specialisms and calling for new collaborations between Industry and Academia. At the same time, scholarly research on these new industry demands remains scarce and somewhat constrained by traditional approaches and typical linguo-cultural pairs. The emergence and rapid growth of the Chinese game market and developing companies present a golden opportunity for pioneering training in universities and bold creative new localisers. This seminar will introduce the main features of video game localisation, highlighting differences with other translation practices and highlighting new research possibilities and career prospects. Both beginners and experts are welcomed to ask during the Q&amp;A session to make the seminar directly relevant to their present interests.<\/p><p><strong>Topic: <\/strong>Game Localisation: New Translation Studies Challenges and New Job Profiles<strong><br \/>Date:<\/strong> 7 June 2021 (Monday)<br \/><strong>Time:<\/strong> 4:00 &#8211; 5:00 p.m. (Hong Kong Time)<br \/><strong>Speaker<\/strong>: Dr Miguel \u00c1.
