Gamepass users should be able to change the language

Age of Empires IV IV - Discussion

I think it’s pretty dumb that Xbox gamepass users cannot change the language of the game whithout changing the language of the whole operating system. Steam users can easily choose a language from the list, why can’t xbox gamepass users choose a language too?

Coming from steam, got the xbox game pass, not gonna stick around much if basics functionalities like this are lacking. Also I can’t locate the main exe file to trigger a keyboard/mouse layout for example. Not good Microsoft.

EDIT. UPDATE: @GuzLightyear989 I could change the game’s language (and even has a separate option for keyboard language) with this option

Although as opposed to others applications from the store (weather for example) A SYSTEM RESTART was needed to take effect.

Thanks, I am aware that you can change the game language by changing the windows display language. But that is still too complicated for something that can be easily done with a selector like on steam. I don’t get why do I have to have my windows language as english just to hear the in-game voices in english. It’s dumb.

No no, you can keep your windows the language you want, just change the windows store applications language, it’s pretty easy and simple although it could use some improvements, like changing the language in game (for just 1 app, or having voices and text in difference language for example)

Thank you! Sorry I misread it at first, that looks like what i was looking for. Still needlesly complicated tbh but at least it works alright.

Thank you! Not even microsoft tech support answered this. All they said was “change whole OS language or gg”

I did those changes to language and still the game language didn’t change. It’s really hard to believe that in 2021 you don’t have a basic option like that available in game.
Tried everything in the help page and even reinstalled the game to no avail.

no, it changes all the application default language. I don’t want to change store language either, just the AoE4 language. this solution from AoE is dumb
