Separate language settings for subtitles and audio

Hello,

Based on the current language download system, it seems the subtitle/UI language and the voice-over language are bundled together.

For instance, if I download the Korean version, I cannot set the Subtitles/UI to Korean and the Voice-over to English.

Will there be a solution like the +miles_language launch option in Apex Legends, or an in-game option to specify these separately?

    While there isn’t an official way yet to have separate text and voice languages in Battlefield 6, you can modify the audio files on PC to achieve that.

    I wanted to have German text and subtitles with the English voiceover, so I did the following (credits go to StrangerLynx, who found an old Steam guide for Battlefield 4):

    1. Switch the language via the EA App or Steam properties to the language you want for the voiceover (in my case, English).
    2. After the automatic download is complete, copy the desired sound files.
      • I created a new folder on my desktop and, inside it, two subfolders: MP (for Multiplayer) and SP (for Singleplayer).
      • Copy the voen.toc file from Battlefield 6\Data\Win32\loc into your MP folder.
      • Copy the voen.toc file from Battlefield 6\Data\Win32\SP\loc into your SP folder.
    3. Rename the copied files to match your desired text language — in my case, German: voen.toc → vode.toc.
    4. Switch the language back via the EA App or Steam properties to your normal text language (in my case, German).
    5. After the download is complete, copy your renamed files back into the original folders:
      • The file from the MP folder goes to Battlefield 6\Data\Win32\loc.
      • The file from the SP folder goes to Battlefield 6\Data\Win32\SP\loc.

    Now your game should have your normal text language and a separate voice language in both singleplayer and multiplayer.

    List of Languages and the abbreviation

    ko for Korean

    fr for French

    it for Italian

    ja for Japanese

    en for English

    de for German

    br, cn and mx exist too, but I’m not completely sure which languages they stand for exactly.

    Well, that's an alternative for the PC players, but this have to be on the main game... And For the console players too.
