Career

Hodgson participated in various fan translations projects for serval years before, in 2011, joining a group that was working on localizing Steins;Gate.[3] After the release of the fan translation patch, he (along with others on the team) were approached by JAST USA about an official release.[3][4] Steins;Gate would become Hodgson's first credited work. In 2017, following his work on several additional video game projects, Hodgson approached J-Novel Club after learning that they had licensed the Occultic;Nine light novels, another entry in the Science Adventure franchise of which Steins;Gate is a part.[5] Immediately after joining the company, he began work on In Another World With My Smartphone, and took over translation for Infinite Dendrogram shortly after.[5] In 2021, Hodgson announced he was beginning work on Rance X – Showdown –.[6]
