Harvest Moon: Echoes of Teradea supports seven languages: English (American English), French, German, Spanish (Spain), Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese. Official store listings on Steam and the Nintendo eShop confirm that localization focuses on interface text, while the game does not include full voice acting.
The game is developed by Natsume Inc. and IMAGICA GEEQ Inc., with an official planned digital release date of October 15, 2026. Platform listings show slight regional variations in packaging and localized text distribution, particularly between digital storefronts and European physical editions.
Confirmed Language Support by Platform
Official data from the Steam store page and Nintendo digital storefronts confirms seven primary languages. On Steam, localization is verified specifically for the interface.
| Language | Steam Interface | Steam Audio | Steam Subtitles | Nintendo eShop |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| English (American English) | Supported | Not supported | Not listed | Supported |
| French | Supported | Not supported | Not listed | Supported |
| German | Supported | Not supported | Not listed | Supported |
| Spanish (Spain) | Supported | Not supported | Not listed | Supported |

The US Nintendo eShop listing specifically identifies the English option as American English, alongside Japanese, French, German, Spanish, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese. European Nintendo eShop listings similarly confirm Japanese, English, Spanish, French, German, and Chinese support.
Voice Acting and Audio Localization
Harvest Moon: Echoes of Teradea does not include full audio voice acting in any supported language. On the official Steam database, the language matrix only features checkmarks under the Interface column. The columns for Full Audio and Subtitles are unselected across all seven supported languages.
This lack of voice track localization is also reflected in community discussions on the official Steam forum, where players have noted the absence of character voice acting in promotional previews and store specifications. Dialogue and story progression across Bloomfield Village and the Forest of Echoes rely entirely on on-screen text.
Physical Edition Language Details
Physical retail copies distributed in Europe through publisher Numskull list a slightly narrower selection of default regional languages compared to global digital listings:
- In-game text languages: English, French, German, and Spanish
- Retail box packaging text: English, French, and Spanish
Regional physical copies sold in North America, such as the Amazon Exclusive Nintendo Switch edition bundled with a plush wolf, explicitly list English under standard product specifications.
Changing Languages in Game
Official walkthroughs for the internal settings menu have not been published ahead of the launch. On PC (Steam), language preferences typically adjust through the Steam client game properties menu (Game Properties > General > Language). On console versions such as the Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5, games published by Natsume standardly synchronize with the system language configured in the console's dashboard settings.
