How to check if a Steam game supports your language
Where to find interface, audio and subtitle language support before you buy, and what the labels mean.
Not every game on Steam is translated, and some only translate part of the game. Checking before you buy saves you from a refund request later.
On the store page
Scroll down the game's store page to the Languages table. Each language has three columns:
- Interface – menus, buttons and in-game text.
- Full audio – spoken dialogue is recorded in that language.
- Subtitles – spoken lines are shown as text in that language.
A game can have a translated interface but no subtitles, which matters a lot in story-heavy games. If the table has a See all languages link, open it, because the short list may hide your language.
Community translations
Some games are translated by fans rather than the developer. These patches can be excellent, but they may lag behind updates. Check the game's community hub or discussion boards for the current status.
On RisingPlay
Each language edition of RisingPlay has a list of rising games that support that language, and every game page lists the languages Steam reports for it. Language data comes from the store and can change when developers add translations.
