Who This Service Is For

Game QA turns release risks into test cases, reproducible issue reports and a visible readiness decision.

Studios approaching a milestone or release

Agree scope, ownership and release priorities before starting.

Teams expanding device or platform coverage

Start with the current brief or build and the outcome the next milestone must deliver.

QA Coverage for Game Teams

Game QA needs to cover more than forms and screens. We test gameplay, devices, builds, performance, crashes, compatibility and release readiness.

Functional QA

Gameplay, UI, progression, input, settings, localization and feature acceptance.

Regression QA

Repeatable test passes after bug fixes, content updates and new builds.

Compatibility QA

Device, OS, browser, hardware and platform-specific checks.

Release QA

Final build checks, storefront requirements, crash review and known issue tracking.

Platforms, Engines and Technical Scope

Functional and regression QA

Cover gameplay, progression, UI, saves and previously fixed defects.

Device and platform matrix

Agree real-device coverage, operating systems, hardware tiers and input methods.

Performance and network checks

Record frame time, memory, loading and network conditions for representative scenarios.

Sample bug report

Give Your Team Reproducible Bug Reports

The report outline below captures the environment, reproduction steps, supporting files and severity needed to prioritize a fix.

  1. EnvironmentBuild number, platform, device or hardware, OS and network state.
  2. ReproductionStarting state, numbered actions and frequency of occurrence.
  3. EvidenceExpected result, actual result, screenshot or video, logs when relevant.
  4. TriageSeverity, affected system, regression status and release recommendation.

What Happens After You Contact Us

You will know what we need, when confidential materials are protected and what deliverable comes next.

  1. Initial review

    We review your brief, build, GDD or roadmap and flag missing scoping inputs.

  2. NDA

    NDA comes first when confidential files, concepts or repository access are involved.

  3. Scoping call

    We align on platforms, production model, constraints, risks and decision owners.

  4. Estimate

    You receive the relevant estimate, discovery proposal or team setup with assumptions stated.

Choose Your Engagement Model

Choose a fixed scope for a bounded release, co-development for a shared production pipeline, or a dedicated team for a changing roadmap.

Fixed-scope project

A defined deliverable, acceptance criteria and milestone budget. Best when requirements are stable; changes are estimated before approval.

Explore fixed-scope project

Co-development

Your team owns product direction and the backlog. We take agreed features or workstreams through your review and build process.

Explore co-development

Dedicated team

Agreed capacity for an evolving roadmap. Role allocation, rates, reporting and notice terms are documented in the proposal.

QA Delivery Format

Test Plan

We define build scope, target devices, priority flows and reporting format.

Bug Reports

Issues include reproduction steps, environment, expected result and supporting media when needed.

Regression Pass

Fixed issues are re-tested and tracked through repeated builds.

Release Notes

We summarize quality risks, blocked areas and release readiness.

Team Composition and Responsibilities

Delivery lead

Defines the work package, acceptance criteria, review checkpoints and dependencies with your owner.

Relevant specialists

Assign engineering, art or QA expertise to the scope described above; confirm allocation in the proposal.

Client product / technical owner

Provides source access, approves priorities and accepts the delivered work.

QA / reviewer

Checks integration, reproducibility and handover quality against the agreed criteria.

We confirm roles, allocation and availability during scoping. Specialists can join full-time or support the phases that need them.

Estimated Timeline and Budget

We estimate this work from the current build, deliverable list, target platforms and acceptance criteria. A focused work package and a continuing production assignment have different schedules; we confirm the range after reviewing the materials.

The proposal separates onboarding or discovery, delivery effort, QA, dependencies and ongoing support. Rates and committed dates are confirmed for the selected scope.

Security, NDA and IP Ownership

NDA before confidential access

Agree confidentiality terms before sharing private builds, designs or repositories.

Ownership and source delivery

Document custom deliverables, IP transfer terms, editable source files and handover milestones in the SOW. Keep third-party license obligations visible.

Repository and account access

Agree named accounts, minimum necessary permissions, review rules and responsibility for store, cloud and build credentials.

Reviewable handover

Define the source, build instructions, dependency inventory and access transfer checklist before final acceptance.

Game QA FAQ

Can you test an existing game build?
Yes. We can start from a provided build, test plan, checklist or bug backlog.
Can QA support LiveOps updates?
Yes. Regression and compatibility passes can be planned around content updates and events.
Do you provide bug reports?
Yes. Bug reports include reproduction steps, expected result, actual result and environment details.
What is included in the delivery?
A scoped test plan, device matrix, reproducible bug reports, retest results and a release-risk summary.
How much does this service cost and how long does it take?
We estimate this work from the current build, deliverable list, target platforms and acceptance criteria. A focused work package and a continuing production assignment have different schedules; we confirm the range after reviewing the materials.
Who owns the IP and source code? Can we sign an NDA?
We can sign an NDA before reviewing confidential materials. The statement of work defines ownership and transfer of custom code and assets, repository access and handover milestones. Third-party assets, plugins and engine components retain their own license terms.
Can you support the project after launch?
Maintenance, content updates, regression QA and LiveOps can be scoped separately. The support agreement defines coverage, response targets, responsibilities and budget before launch.
What risks should we resolve before starting?
An incomplete device matrix, unstable builds and unclear release criteria limit what a QA pass can establish.

Need QA Before Release?

Share your build, target platforms and deadline. We will define a QA pass that fits the release risk.
