Chinese Localization for Visual Novels

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to throw a question out there for anyone that has localized their visual novels in Chinese. Were there many additional sales on platforms like Steam that made it worth it? Did you reach out to a publisher to publish to Chinese only platforms, like WeGame (or do it yourself?)?

I've received an offer to translate one of my projects but I'm weighing up the pros and cons - I've localized projects to other regions in Asia before, but never touched China, so would love to hear from people that have!

Thank you!

Interesting question! I'm really curious about Asian localization too. Not just for China, but Japan and Korea as well. I didn't think they were interested in western VNs.
