Hi, I’m Marianna.

I am an English-into-German video game translator with a passion for narrative games. I help video game makers and storytellers bring their projects to the German-speaking community.

I have been a video game localizer since 2004 and have worked on 100+ projects, from AAA to MMO, from franchise to indie. Indie games are my favorites.

I’m also a writer and happy to assist you in getting your story straight or write up a press release, blog post, or walkthrough.
