How do I change the language of BF2 in the EA app?

Title. I want to install BF2 again but the new app doesn't give me any language choice other than my native language when installing. The problem is that I absolutely hate playing games in my native language because the translations are usually horrible and I prefer english anyways. Is there a way to change it?

  • You purchase the game for a particular language and that's the option you get when you install.

    thats not right... i have the same problem with this new trash EA App, i cant change my language for no reason....

    back in the day when Origin was used i could change it for every game to every language i wanted.

    the language is not based on you location or the key you purchased.... dont spread misinformation.

  • Hey, I was having that problem. Apparently the EA app reads from the windows registry . So you have to open the Windows registry and go to 

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\EA Games\STAR WARS Battlefront II

    and where it says Locale , give it a double click and change it to  en_US   for English.

    Mine was in pt_BR , for Brazilian Portuguese. I'm not sure if this would work in regional versions, because the game might not download the language files. but it's worth a try.

  • I bought the English version to combat anti-Polish discrimination by EA. The moment they introduced the EA App, I lost access to English. How do I get it back?

    thanks for this, your solution was absolutely goated @qlfk67 

    Not only did it fix my game language, but also for the EA app, which was constantly reverting to my regional language, even after manually selecting English countless times in settings.

    Bro is more competent than actual EA employees.
