Chained Beasts Supported Languages and Edition Differences

Which languages does the full-game Steam listing support?

The inspected English Steam page lists the twelve languages below for interface and subtitles. Only English is marked for full audio. These are product-page statements checked on October 15, 2026, not a claim that we tested every translation in the launch build.

Language	Interface	Subtitles	Full audio
English	Listed	Listed	Listed
French	Listed	Listed	Not listed
Italian	Listed	Listed	Not listed
German	Listed	Listed	Not listed
Japanese	Listed	Listed	Not listed
Korean	Listed	Listed	Not listed
Portuguese — Brazil	Listed	Listed	Not listed
Simplified Chinese	Listed	Listed	Not listed
Spanish — Latin America	Listed	Listed	Not listed
Traditional Chinese	Listed	Listed	Not listed
Russian	Listed	Listed	Not listed
Turkish	Listed	Listed	Not listed

Interface, subtitles and spoken audio are separate columns. A supported interface language does not automatically establish a complete voice track. “Not listed” describes the source’s matrix rather than an independent test of every sound or text element.

Why does Xbox show a different language count?

The inspected Xbox listing uses thirteen entries, including both US and UK English. Counting locale rows therefore produces a different total from Steam’s twelve-language list without necessarily identifying an additional distinct language.

Xbox lists interface support for those entries and audio for its English entries. Its matrix did not mark Simplified Chinese subtitles in the same way as Steam did. We treat that as a store-metadata difference requiring verification, not proof that all Chinese text is absent from the Xbox game. Check the current page for the specific edition before relying on one platform’s columns for another.

What does Nintendo’s language list establish?

The Nintendo UK page lists Japanese, English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Korean and Chinese. That list does not make the same interface/audio/subtitle distinctions as Steam’s matrix, and it does not separately identify Chinese variants in the inspected section.

Use the Switch requirements guide for the other product-specific details. Do not copy Steam’s entire table into a Switch guide and label it verified simply because both products have the same game title.

Does the Demo use the same translations?

The separate Demo page listed ten languages when checked, compared with twelve on the main product. A developer also confirmed in a Steam discussion that Russian would be available in the full game. That statement should not be rewritten as a promise about every earlier Demo build.

See Demo versus full game for the wider differences. When identifying a localization problem, include the product, platform, installed version and the specific missing or incorrect text.

How do you change the language?

We have not verified an exact in-game language-menu route for each edition. Use the options actually provided by your installed version and the relevant platform’s current guidance. Changing the Steam store webpage language is not evidence that the game’s interface setting changed.

For an accessibility decision, combine the language information with documented accessibility features. A language listing does not establish subtitle size, remapping, screen-reader support or a control for every visual effect.
