Abstract
Aimed at promoting a broader interdisciplinary discussion, this paper explores translation and entertainment in the context of current and emerging technological trends from a perspective beyond strictly Translation Studies concerns. Taking the case of video games as a rapidly growing modern digital entertainment genre, the article examines the concept of adaptation and how transmedia and remediation might further impact translation practices. It hints at a new development of translation itself as a form of entertainment, which may tie in with the concept of gamification to stimulate further thinking into the future of translation and entertainment.
