How to Change Text and Voice Language in Honkai: Star Rail

Honkai Star Rail is an amazing turn-based RPG that takes players on an exciting and magical journey across the stars as they become a passenger on the interplanetary Astral Express train. One of the biggest draws to playing Honkai Star Rail is that almost the entirety of the main story and a hefty chunk of side content is all fully voice-acted! In a world where AAA games still choose to forego voice acting (we're looking at you, Pokémon), having every character voice their lines greatly adds to the overall immersion of Honkai Star Rail. 

Even better, Honkai Star Rail is fully voiced in several different languages. So, if you prefer listening to your anime characters speak in Japanese or would prefer to have the characters speak as the Chinese game studio HoYoverse intended, you have the freedom to choose!

So, if you are interested in changing your language settings in Honkai Star Rail, you've come to the right place. This article will cover everything you need to know about how to change your Language in Honkai Star Rail!

Changing your language in Honkai Star Rail is very easy to do, and all you have to do is follow our step-by-step guide. 

  1. Select the smartphone icon in the top left corner of the screen to access the menu. 

  2. Select the "Settings" icon on the right side of the screen, indicated by a small gear. 

  3. Select the third tab named "Language Settings."

  4. Here, you can choose the language you want to be displayed as text and played during voice-acted dialogue sequences. 

  5. Restart your game (this should be done automatically). 

You can also change your language on the title screen by selecting "Language" on the left side. 

It is possible to mix and match these options, so if you want to read the story in English but listen to the Japanese voices, you are free to do so. Players will need to download additional language resources depending on the region they downloaded the game from. For example, if your Google Play or Apple Store is in a typically English-speaking region, the game will default to English.
