How to change the language in Apex Legends on Steam
Steam is the other launcher that you can use to play Apex Legends on PC. Like Origin, the platform allows you to choose your game language:
- Start Steam and locate Apex Legends in the library.
- Right-click on the game and select the "Properties" button.
- Navigate to the left side of the screen and go to the "Language" tab.
- Choose your preferred language and start your Apex Legends with your new language installed.
You can also use another method to change the language. Keep in mind that it's a bit more complicated:
- Open Steam and navigate to your library.
- Find Apex Legends and right-click on the game. Choose the "Properties" option.
- Go to the "Launch Options" sections and go to the end of the line in the box.
- Replace the last word in the line indicating the current language (for example, Japanese or Italian) with your preferred language.
- Close the window and restart your Apex Legends.
If the game still uses the same language even after updating your language pack, you will need to delete or rename the old files:
- Open Steam and navigate to your library.
- Locate Apex Legends and right click on it.
- Choose the "Manage" option, followed by "Browse local files".
- Go to the “Audio” folder and then to the “Ship” folder.
- You should find a bunch of languages in this window. To get rid of unwanted ones, select them and press the "Delete" button at the top of the menu. You can also rename them to something Apex Legends won't recognize. This way the game will be forced to use your preferred language.
