Culture Shock

Published:2025-01-13T10:00 / Source:https://www.polygon.com/special-issues/505253/culture-shock

This week on Polygon, we’re looking at how cultural differences affect media in a special issue called Culture Shock. From text localization to character design, religious considerations to censorship, we’re looking at some of the many ways things get complicated when games, shows, and movies are released in different territories — or change back home as a result of those territories. We’ll have new stories all week.
