Hi!

I want to change the language of my game from Polish to English, I googled it and tried all the ways but I didn't work. I tried changing it in Game Properties in Origin, I tried un-installing and re-installing the game on an English Origin account, but neither worked. I even tried changing the language in Regedit from Polish to English, but every time I went into game, it switched back to Polish. I would be very greatful if anyone could help me.

Hi @confettii-simmer

You must have the Origin Beta version. On Origin in option Game properties in advanced startup options you have the option of changing language. Doesn't it work?

Maybe after changing the language you have to delete the whole game folder from the documents and allow the game to create a new one

I don't work for EA . I'm only player who tries to help other players

    Hi @kreatora @confettii-simmer @kosma74,

    I've merged a couple threads as you were wondering the same. Answering your questions:

    If you own a version of the game which doesn't have English language included, then it won't be possible to change the language to English.

    When buying a game through Origin store, you can check the languages you will get in the overview section: https://www.origin.com/store/the-sims/the-sims-4#store-page-section-overview

    Once The Sims 4 is in your library, you can check which languages are available for it by following the steps kreatora shared: right click on the game > Properties > Advanced startup options > Language. You can do this no matter which Origin you are using.

    Hope that helps,

    -Mai

        Hi @laurakedzierska

        right-click on the game in Origin, then properties

        Choose the tab Advanced Launch Options. That should give you all game languages available with your version.

        You can switch to any language listed there.

      Hi!, 

      so that's mean that, If I bough the game in polish language, I'm not be able to change to English? Because, I when I wanted to buy the game I was in Poland Country but I don't speak in Polish.

        @DianaRQ  Yes, that's what it means.  If you buy the version available in Poland, you can only play in Polish, Russian, or Czech.

        If you want to play in English, you'll need to buy the game while in a country that offers the global version, and while your Origin storefront is set to that location; buy a physical copy from a store that's in a country that offers the global version; or buy a digital download key for the global version, but read the fine print to make sure that's what you're getting.  Here's a list of authorized vendors of EA products:

        You'll also probably need to have the current version of Sims 4 removed from your account.  You can request this from EA customer support.
