Borderlands 3 has now released, but many worldwide players on PC have found the game locked to their native language, leaving them unable to enjoy the voice acting, writing and story in English if they so desire. With many famous folks providing their tones for the game, it’d be a real shame to miss out through a locked language. Fortunately, there is a fix, so if you’re trying to change the language with the Epic Games Store release of Borderlands 3, read on.
How to change Language in Borderlands 3 PC
If you want to play Borderlands 3 in a different language to your region, you won’t find any options in-game. Instead, you need to play with the launch settings for Borderlands 3 on the Epic Games Launcher. To do this, open up the launcher and choose the setting option in the bottom left corner. Find Borderlands 3 on the list and tick the “Additional Command Line Arguments” box to open up a new entry field. In here you can adjust the language by entering “-language=“en”” or “-culture=en"(remove the outer speech marks). This will force your game to launch in English, so if you’re after another language, replace “en” with the appropriate letters.
To summarize, here are all the steps for how to change language in Borderlands 3 on PC:
- Open the Epic Games Launcher
- Click Settings
- Scroll down to Borderlands 3 and open the drop down menu
- Tick Additional Command Line Arguments
- Enter the following for English language: -language=“en”
