Hello there,

I am aware that the JPN/KR are now available since being delayed for launch but I assume that I can not access them because my GOG account is UK based as they are not listed in the extra downloads for the title. I am able to read and understand both languages and would have wanted to experience the game with the nuances that those languages bring. I assume that the steam distribution allows for it regardless of account location. Many people could be expats or could be living eslewhere than the intended area for the localisation so it seems silly to not have all languages as a selectable option to all.

If my assumptions were either right or wrong about region based localisation restrictions could you please make the languages available to download via GOG Galaxy and the GOG site itself to all regions.

Thank you.

I've checked those new added languages and looks like they are not region locked. Please refresh your game page (on gog.com) - maybe something stuck there :)

I feel so stupid now.... I was always looking in the extras section and saw languages in parenthesis next to goodies pack and it didn't really register in my mind that it was referring to something else. I assumed that they were the language patches for optional download and installation.

Thanks for for the help. I really appreciate it. I found the toggle for installing languages.
