Hogwarts Legacy is finally here, letting players create their own custom witch or wizard and attend the magical school of Hogwarts. Like most modern games, Hogwarts Legacy has been localized in several languages, so players can choose different voice-over and text options to suit their needs. Some players are having trouble figuring out how to change the audio and text language during their Hogwarts Legacy playthrough, however. Here’s what you need to know to change the language in Hogwarts Legacy regardless of your chosen platform.

That way, you can get German voices in the United States, for example. There are also plenty of languages that are supported with subtitles and a translated UI, such as Russian, but there isn’t a full dub for Hogwarts Legacy in those languages.
Hogwarts Legacy is available now on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
