Virtual Universe Consortium
Synergy in the air as Alchemic Dream, Monde Media Solutions and Laboratoires Bug-Tracker join forces.
Montreal, Quebec – Alchemic Dream, experts in MMO community management, announced today that Monde Media Solutions and Laboratoires Bug-Tracker, leading providers of localization and quality assurance services, will join forces to create the first Virtual Universe Consortium.
For the past twelve years, the three service providers have lead the outsourcing business by supporting video game publishers and developers and increasing players’ immersion in virtual worlds. As a part of this synergy, the online game specialists will benefit from multicultural localization and quality management.
Jean-Robert Michel, General Manager of Monde Media Solutions, explains the partnership, “Social and MMO gamer communities from all over the world, across all regions, languages and platforms would prefer a bug-free gaming experience in their own language and well managed virtual worlds. By being an active member of this consortium, Monde Media Solutions provides access to video game localization professionals to assist product republishing.”
“We are re-inventing the B2B service model by supporting and representing multicultural e-communities for the publishers and developers,” says Aurélien Merville, President and CEO of Alchemic Dream.
“Quality Assurance is based on client and user satisfaction. In the era of virtual communities, Bug-Tracker has found the right partners to reach its objective of enhancing the game experience of world-wide players,” added Antoine Carre, President and CEO of Bug-Tracker.
Letting the development and design teams concentrate on the development cycle, the consortium share resources and knowledge to build solutions designed for the online gaming publishers and developers:
A one-stop-shop for cultural adaption, localization and translation, improved community management, increased customer retention through outstanding customer support, role-playing events and community entertainment, monetization implantation and analysis, deep game-play and focus group analysis, robust load & stress testing, functionality and compatibility testing and automation testing.
