KF2: Change the Voice-Over Language Without Changing the Game Language

Killing Floor 2 ties its voice-over to the chosen language, but you can mix them by hand: keep the interface in one language and hear the voices in another. This short guide, originally in Russian, explains the file swap.

Steps

  1. Open the game's local files. In Steam, right-click Killing Floor 2, open Properties, go to Local Files and press Browse Local Files. This takes you straight to the killingfloor2 root folder.
  2. Navigate to KFGame\BrewedPC\WwiseAudio\Windows. The full default path is Steam\steamapps\common\killingfloor2\KFGame\BrewedPC\WwiseAudio\Windows.
  3. Decide which voice language you want. In the author's example, English: open the English(US) folder and copy all files from it.
  4. Paste them into the folder of the voice language you currently have installed (Russia in the example), replacing every file.

That is all; the game now uses the English voice files while the menus stay in your chosen language.

Reverting

To go back to Russian or any other original voice-over, run Steam's Verify integrity of game files on Killing Floor 2. It restores the original files.

Tips

  • Game updates may overwrite the changed files, so repeat the copy if the voices switch back.
  • For other tweaks to menu videos see replacing menu and intro videos.
