Capcom has finally rolled out full Polish language support for both Resident Evil 4 Remake and Resident Evil Village. The update adds Polish UI text, subtitles, and voice‑overs on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, letting you experience the horror narrative without switching languages. Only the Switch cloud version of Village remains untranslated.
What’s Included in the Polish Localization
The Polish pack covers three core elements:
- UI text – menus, prompts, and in‑game notifications appear in Polish.
- Subtitles – every line of dialogue is translated, ensuring you don’t miss story details.
- Voice‑over – on most platforms the characters speak Polish, giving a fully immersive experience.
These components are delivered as a single language pack, so you don’t need to juggle multiple downloads.
How to Enable Polish Language
Activating the Polish language is straightforward:
- Navigate to the game’s Settings menu.
- Select Language and choose Polski from the list.
- Confirm the change; the game will reload with Polish assets.
If you’re on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, or PC, the pack appears automatically in the console’s store or on Steam. For the Switch cloud version of Village, you’ll need to wait for a future update.
Impact on Polish Players
Polish gamers can now enjoy the story without relying on fan‑made translations or playing in English. This removes a major barrier and lets you fully appreciate the atmospheric horror and character interactions. Many players have reported that hearing Leon’s commands in their native language makes the tension feel more personal.
Developer Insight on Localization
According to a localization specialist who has worked on AAA titles, “Adding a full Polish voice pack after a five‑year gap is technically straightforward but logistically demanding. You have to re‑record dialogue, sync lip‑movement, and test across multiple platforms. Delivering it simultaneously for both titles shows that Capcom allocated dedicated resources, which is a positive sign for future releases.”
Future Outlook
The move signals that Capcom is taking the European market more seriously. While Polish was previously an afterthought, the simultaneous rollout suggests a shift toward broader language support. If this momentum continues, you can expect more titles—perhaps the next Resident Evil entry—to receive Polish localization from day one.
