Subtitling is converting audio or video content from one language to another by displaying text on the screen. It is a crucial tool for companies, individuals, and organizations who want to make their content easier to access by people who speak different languages. Here, we will talk more about it as an accessible tool for localization.
Subs are text-based translations of the voice of the content that appears on the screen, typically at the bottom. Subtitling companies can be used in various fields, including television, movies, music videos, educational videos, and in-house marketing films. Clients who can benefit from subs include TV producers, movie studios, independent movie makers, educational video providers, and music video makers.
At Tolma4 Team, we offer a range of subtitle translation services to meet the needs of various clients. Whether you need subs for a short video or an extended TV series, we can help make your content accessible to viewers who speak different languages or have other hearing abilities. We work with a team of experienced translators who can promptly provide accurate and high-quality localization.
In addition to the services mentioned above, Tolma4 Team offers a wide range of subtitle translation solutions to meet the specific needs of our clients. We understand every project is unique, so we provide a flexible and personalized approach to our services.

LiS: Before the Storm
The Tolma4 Team created an unofficial Russian localisation for our game Before the Storm. We worked with them to help ease the implementation of this localisation as a mod and also promoted it across our brand channels, but they handled all technical issues and localisation work.

MechaNika, Agatha Knife, Colossus Down
Really professional and friendly team. They did an awesome job with the localization of our first game, MechaNika. Can’t wait to work together again on future projects!
Over the Ocean
Tolma4 Team was easy to work and communicate with on the long, 50k+ word Russian and German localizations of Even the Ocean. They were fast in localizing art assets, and their QA caught missing text that I had forgotten needed to be localized.
Treasure Adventure
The fine folks at Tolma4Team did a FANTASTIC job with the localization and made the process as painless for me as possible. I was constantly impressed with their professionalism, quality and speed. The complexity of localizing was always something that worried me but Tolma4Team’s crew truly put my anxieties at ease.

The team’s professionalism throughout the entire process was fantastic and they worked quickly to provide a high quality localisation that appeared to be very well received by our Russian speaking fan community. We did not test or verify the contents of the modification created by the Tolma4 Team and therefore are unable to endorse it officially, but there is no question that their diligent work helped open up our game to Russian speaking fans.
