Here is a simple step-by-step guide for Travelers who wish to change their game's language from English to Japanese (or Chinese or Korean) and vice versa:

1. Pause the game to bring up the Paimon Menu.
2. Go to Settings (it's on the left side and it resembles a gear-shaped icon).
3. Go to Language.
4. Travelers can change the Game Language and Voice-Over Language.

Travelers can also get rid of voice-over languages they don't plan to use to save storage space. At the bottom right of this screen is a "Manage Voice-Over Files" button and players should click on it to select any language that they wish to uninstall.
