Game Language
The Language feature lets you create one game with multiple language versions without duplicating your setup or managing separate campaigns.
This feature keeps everything connected across languages: winner generation, user statistics, prize distribution, and more. It’s perfect for global campaigns, multi-market launches, or any time you want to speak to your audience in their own language without doubling your workload.
Let’s walk through how to set it up.
By default, the game language is set to English. You can change this in the Language Settings under your game's settings or in Assets & Settings > Language. Changing the default language in Assets & Settings ensures that all newly created games will use that language by default.
How to set up additional languages in Game:
-
Navigate to your game's Language Settings.
-
Toggle on 'Enable Additional Languages.'This will open the settings for adding additional languages, as well as a sticky sidebar listing all the languages you add.
-
Click + Add and select the desired language from the dropdown menu.
-
Choose how the language name will be displayed to players:
- English: Displays the standard English name for the language.
- Custom: Enter a custom display name.
The language will be added to the Languages List and in the side panel. -
You can update your game texts in two ways:
1. By clicking on the 'Edit texts for all languages button on Languages or the icon at the bottom of the bar. This opens a popup with all editable texts. If you proceed to add any additional settings to the game, the related texts will automatically be added to the popup for easy access.
2. Navigating to the language version and specific game settings you wish to update. -
(Optional) Upload an icon for the language selector button and style the dropdown to match your game's design.
Game Settings and Language
Once additional languages are added, a language bar appears on the left side of the settings panel:
- The default language is listed at the top.
- Full game settings can only be modified when the default language is selected.
- When an additional language is selected, only text fields can be edited for translation purposes.
- At the bottom of the language bar, click the “Edit texts for all languages” icon to open the popup where you can update all translatable fields in one place.

When an additional language is selected, only text fields can be edited. All functional changes needs to be done on the main language version.
