Chinese Game Marketing

Our China marketing services are managed and executed by gaming professionals with deep knowledge of the Chinese market. We stay on top of platform trends, cultural shifts, and what is resonating with Chinese players right now.

Strategy & Research

Every successful China campaign starts with understanding the landscape. We analyse your game, genre, target audience, and the competitive environment across Chinese platforms before a single move is made. You get a clear, actionable strategy built specifically for the Chinese market.

Approvals, Documents, and Licenses

Navigating China's regulatory requirements is one of the biggest barriers for Western studios. We handle the paperwork, approvals, and licensing processes so you can focus on your game while we clear the path.

Localisation

Breaking into China means more than translating your game. We adapt your copy, creatives, and messaging to feel native to Chinese players. Your game will be culturally relevant, platform specific, and written by professionals who live within these platforms.

Go Native

HOW WE WORK

How We Launch and Scale Campaigns

Every campaign follows a proven four stage framework across 500+ game launches on mobile, PC, and console platforms. The process is designed to reduce wasted spend while accelerating large scale player acquisition.

01
Auditing

We analyse your game through a Chinese cultural lens, identifying friction points, refining your messaging, and finding the right cultural hooks.

02
Building

We establish your official presence across all relevant Chinese platforms. Verified accounts, localised branding, and full technical compliance.

03
Activating

We deploy our network of Chinese gaming influencers across Bilibili, HeyBox, and RedNote. We do not just sponsor them. We co-create content that has an impact.

04
Scaling

Once we know what is working, we amplify it. High-performing content gets pushed with precision media buys to get your game onto trending lists and platform front pages.

PROVEN RESULTS

Real campaigns. Real publishers. Real results inside the Chinese market.

FAQ About China Marketing

What types of games perform best in the Chinese market?
