UPDATE 2015-05-30
There is now an easier possibility to change the language. Please make sure to opt in Origin Beta since it's not available on the current version of Origin.

This is because the store's language is limited to the country you are in (in your case, Brazilian PT), whereas the edition of the game is not following these restrictions.
Language availability on the store has been set this way ever since the new version of Origin/Origin store came out, about a year ago. It does not affect the game's languages. In your case, your edition has all languages available, afaik. 🙂
Does that answer your question?

Can i bring to attention that even though there are alot of issues with the language there has not been a single responds on it from ea officials. But on a question regarding store language what has nothing to do with the ingame language and thereby the core problem does not get a single official ea responds.
On a sidenote, reinstalling the game changed the game to the english language but i still think it's absurd that i need to reinstall for it.
- This is a user support community. I've jumped into this thread because @crinrict brought it to my attention and thought we could help clear things out.
I'm currently reinstalling the game in my own mother tongue for testing purposes.
I do agree that having to reinstall is a bit bothersome, but remember you can always copy the files into a different folder, uninstall, restart the install, pause it and copy the files back in, and restart it. If I'm correct it should perform a check for which files need to be downloaded, and since you'll have pretty much everything already, be much faster.My suggestion would be to make the language packs available for download. And for those not having enough know how to play around with regedit, make it an installation program. I am no programmer myself but i wouldnt think it would take alot of effort to quickly make a installation program to install said language packs where you get to choose the language you want to play. That is if it is just a matter of putting the language pack in the folder and change the regedit.
I do not know if the language pack has commands coming from and going to the game that makes said solution impossible.
Excius, I'm a girl! 😛
Francois explained it all.
In the available languages information I have all of them listed.
And I didn't know about this copying files method, but still, how do I know I'm downloading the english version this time?
@EA_Francois - what about the regions where English is not listed as an option? I'm in Poland and the listing in the sdescription says that this game is available in Polish, Russian and Czech - why not English? Is there one reason why in these 3 regions we can't buy the English version?
Varhyd, Once upon a time Russian versions of EA games were sold for close to 50% off English language versions. Lot of Key selling sites sprung up to take advantage of this by offering keys to folks in other countries. To counter this, EA made it such that Russian versions were restricted to 2-3 languages only. But now, Russian versions cost the same as other regions, yet EA has not yet updated their policy to add other languages in, so we are stuck with these 3 languages even though we pay the same as members in other countries.
Hopefully they will soon fix this, but dont expect it to happen for this game!!!
