Keep your dust away from this vinyl! Back in 2012 the indie game Dustforce swept us away with its gorgeous visuals, gameplay, and music. LIFEFORMED composed one of our favorite game soundtracks ever, and we’re excited to press it on vinyl for the very first time. Art by Drew Wise.

This year started with heavy hitters from all of the departments. In January QLOC devs delivered Tales of Vesperia: Definitive Edition on all major platforms: PC, PLayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. In February players followed the bug-less story of Artyom in Metro Exodus thanks to our QA team. April saw the release of three major development projects: Nintendo Switch ports of Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice followed by Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen and PC port of Mortal Kombat 11. The first half of the year QLOC Dragons concluded with a PC port of Yakuza Kiwami 2. QLOC is currently working on multiple high-level projects. We really can’t wait to tell you more about these. Stay tuned!
So far 2018 has been absolutely filled with exciting projects for our DEV, QA and LOC teams. But nothing spells excitement as much as the May’s release of Dark Souls Remastered for PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 – developed by QLOC! Back in April we also opened a new branch office in Gdańsk for our growing Development team. Can’t slow down now!
2017 started with the reveal of our involvement in RiME for PC and Xbox One versions. We are also proud to deliver the Polish translation and voiceovers in Prey, praised in the media for its „zero fakeness”. The QLOC Dragons family grew thanks to new localization office in Moscow. And there was no stopping us after that! October marked the release of Capcom’s Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen port for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 prepared by QLOC. The exciting year topped off with November’s release of Injustice 2 for PC, developed by NetherRealm Studios and QLOC – a port very well-received and critically acclaimed. And what is coming in 2018? We have already started working on a couple of titles for Nintendo Switch and other outstanding projects…
A good film should start with an earthquake and be followed by rising tension. A good year should start with a spectacular project like Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen – the fastest selling Capcom PC game ever! What’s next? Dead Rising (PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One), God Eater and Mortal Kombat XL for PC.
Tales of Zestiria was a masterpiece of our texture upscaling magic (also for PlayStation 4). Not to mention Dragon Ball: Xenoverse PC port with 4k resolution support and DmC: Devil May Cry Definitive Edition for PlayStation 4, Xbox One. We also had 9.5 million words translated by our localization team in 2015 only.
In 2014 we added graphic art design to the portfolio of our services. Resident Evil 4 Ultimate HD Edition with smooth 60 fps animation established a new quality benchmark for our porting projects. And by the way, we also did Dustforce for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita.
Hold on, here come DMC: Devil May Cry for PC, Ace Combat: Assault Horizon and over 60 other Quality Assurance projects.
PC versions of Street Fighter X Tekken and Devil May Cry HD Collection for Xbox 360 were our next steps in porting. Quality Assurance clock showed over 70 projects. QLOC’s engines ran on full speed!
Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition was our big win in porting and started a new chapter for our Company. In 2011 we also conducted 79 Quality Assurance projects and notable localization projects like The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
78 Quality Assurance projects (like Bioshock 2, Just Cause 2, Mafia 2) were a sign of our development but we soon realized the video games industry needs more. We added porting services to our portfolio.
QLOC began as an independent company by offering quality assurance and localization services. In 2009 we realized 60 Quality Assurance projects such as S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Call of Pripyat, Street Fighter IV andResident Evil 5.
