Change Language on PC

Gears 5
#1

Hello! I recently downloaded Gears 4 to catch up on the story but the game is totally in Spanish and the translation is quite awful, I will like to play in English where the VAs are actually talented. is there a way to do this? MS forcing the native language and not giving an option in-game to change it is quite sad.

I found It on another forum:
after fiddling with the settings and the ini files, there is indeed another way to switch languages. You need to go into your appdata folder, find the Gears 5 directory and go into the folder Saved, followed by Config and PC.

The directory should be the following:

C:\Users\ username \AppData\Local\Gears5\Saved\Config\PC

There you open the GameUserSettings.ini file, and in that file look for the line ’ PreferredLanguageCode= '. Fill in with the language of choice, for example EN, and boot the game - it should now be in English.

but the subtitles are also in english, I would like to change to portuguese.
