Game audio services provider SIDE announced that its newest studio, SIDE Paris will open in early 2023.

Founded in 1997, the firm has offered services such as casting, studio recordings, and performance direction.

SIDE has worked on titles such as Returnal, It Takes Two, and Dying Light 2: Stay Human.

The company said that its France-based establishment will prioritize audio localization.

“The needs of developers and publishers continues to grow,” said SIDE senior vice president of audio and speech technology Oliver Deslandes.

“By opening SIDE Paris, we will be able to take on additional projects, with SIDE Paris acting as a ‘port-of-call’ for French language services, as well as multilingual audio localization services.”

SIDE Paris joins the SIDE London, SIDE Shanghai, and SIDE LA offices.
