A must-attend event for QA, Localization, Community, and Support professionals

Get ready to reunite and refine your craft, as Game Quality Forum is back in the vibrant city of Lisbon! Join the GQF team from 24 to 26 June for another unmissable gathering dedicated to bringing QA, Localization, Community, and Support experts together.

The player has changed—and the industry must keep up

In recent years, we’ve seen a fundamental shift in player behaviour—from welcoming gradual improvements over a product’s lifecycle to demanding instant quality, authenticity and a meaningful community voice. This evolution places QA, Localization, Community and Support teams at the heart of every game’s success, ensuring experiences resonate with players and grow alongside them.

Doing more with less: the modern challenge

As expectations climb, so do the demands on budgets, headcounts, and release schedules. Smaller teams, tighter resources and faster cycles can feel overwhelming—but they also spark innovation. Now is the moment to rethink processes, experiment with new approaches and build agile teams that thrive in this fast-paced environment. GQF will show you how.

AI: opportunity or overhype?

Artificial intelligence remains one of the industry’s hottest topics. Some see it as the key to unlocking efficiency; others worry it may dilute authenticity. At GQF, we’ll focus on practical AI applications—where it elevates our roles and where the human touch remains irreplaceable.

Topics on the GQF agenda

Join experts for in-depth sessions on:
• Elevating our roles – defining clear career paths and proving QA/Loc value to studios
• Building stronger relationships – collaborating effectively with internal teams and external partners
• Leading through challenges – managing teams and championing quality in uncertain times
• Gaming accessibility – fostering inclusive communities and ensuring every player feels represented
• Adapting to a changing industry – meeting evolving player expectations, mastering live-service models and embracing test automation & user-generated content
