Sure, you can change the default language by going to Settings > Time & Language > Region > Regional format, but that’s not always the best solution.
If you want to change the language in Gears 5, you can do it by modifying some files from the appdata folder. Follow the steps to do so:
- Open File Explorer.
- Navigate to Gears 5 directory ( usually C:\Users\username\AppData\Loca\lGears5\Saved\Config\PC)
- In the folder, locate GameUserSettings.ini file and double-click it.
- After opening the file, find the PreferredLanguageCode= and fill in with your language of choice. For example, if you want the game to be in English, fill in with EN. The result should look like this PreferredLanguageCode=EN.
- Now start the game.
After following these steps, Gears 5 should now be in the language of your choosing.Â
