Gamecity XP Boost: " The Chinese Market for Games"
The Chinese audience holds an enormous potential for indies, given the size and interest in games. There's got to be something you can do with 1.4 billion people – but how to reach them? What should be considered in terms of localization, apart from translating store descriptions and in-game text? Which genres work well in China, and which don’t? What’s to be considered regarding sales platforms like Steam?
David Clark, Global Client Director at Arcus Key, helps Western companies answer those questions – and he shares his insights in this newest issue of the Gamecity XP Boost series.
Join us on June 5 at 5 pm to get answers to all these questions and more - and find out if the Chinese market is a good fit for your game:

Which genres work well in China, and which don’t? What’s to be considered regarding sales platforms like Steam?
