How to change the voice language in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

Select the language that's right for you.

Nintendo titles have become famous for featuring little to no voice acting whatsoever. The developers instead have traditionally relied on text to tell the story of each particular game. But all that changed with 2017’s smash hit, Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The Game of the Year featured full-fledged voice acting, which was a change of pace for Nintendo.

As expected, Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom features even more voice acting, which has led players to wonder if they will be able to change the voice language for their copies.

Fortunately, Nintendo has given players many options when it comes to changing the language of the acting in Tears of the Kingdom. Below, you can see exactly what languages are available and how to change the current voice language.

Changing the voice language in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

The process to change your voice language is extremely simple and can be done at any time while you’re playing. To do so, simply bring up the inventory, which can be done by pressing the “+” button on your Nintendo Switch or controller. From here, go to the System settings, which can be found on the right-hand side of the screen.

A new menu will appear that gives you a plethora of gameplay options to tinker with. The one you’re looking for is labeled “Voice Language,” and if you select this option, you will be presented with a drop-down menu that lists all of the available voice languages you can swap to.

The voice languages in Tears of the Kingdom are as follows:
