History
As his parents owned a cybercafe, Uygar was literally born into the gaming world and discovered his talent for languages and passion for games at an early age. He played games with a dictionary right beside the PC. And yeah, as can be expected, he naturally evolved into a game translator.
He started his professional game localization career during his translation studies back in Turkey in 2012 as a freelance translator. After 6 years of gaining experience and honing skills, he decided to move into the UK in 2018 and started his own localization studio: Wordarch.
Now, with the great combination of youth and experience, he is on the look-out for the next great story to be told.
