Short answer

Steam still lists Simplified Chinese interface and subtitles for Frostrail. The original Chinese-language topic now has four same-question replies, and a separate September 2 topic reports the option missing as well. No public developer answer or hidden menu path is available, so this remains a Closed Beta mismatch rather than proof that planned Chinese support was removed.

Check without modifying the game

  1. Confirm the appMake sure you launched Frostrail Playtest. The language list on the retail store describes the planned game, not necessarily every beta build.
  2. Check the in-game settingsLook through the interface, accessibility and language sections and restart after a language change if the game offers one.
  3. Check Steam propertiesRight-click Frostrail Playtest → Properties and look for a Language selector. If Steam does not expose it, do not force a launch option from another game.
  4. Capture the mismatchTake screenshots of the Steam language list and the beta settings menu, then file an in-game report.
  5. Watch official newsTreat a developer post or new build note as stronger than an old store-language assumption.

What Steam currently promises

The Frostrail store page lists seven supported languages and marks Simplified Chinese for interface and subtitles. It does not list full Chinese audio. The page is also for an unreleased Early Access product, so it can describe launch support that is incomplete in a limited test.

The correct conclusion is a beta mismatch, not that Chinese has been cancelled. The Steam listing remains present on September 2.

Frostrail 中文怎么设置?

First check Frostrail Playtest's in-game interface, accessibility and language menus, then Steam Properties for a Language selector. If neither surface offers Simplified Chinese, no public source currently provides another supported path.

The available threads do not identify a launch flag, configuration key or hidden menu. Capture both the Steam language table and the beta settings screen, then use the in-game report button.

Frostrail 没有中文 — what the reports mean

The original Chinese-language post asks whether localization is simply absent from the test build. Four replies now repeat the same question. A separate topic says the store advertises Chinese but the missing option makes the game difficult to play.

These reports show that the problem affects several testers, but none supplies a workaround and no developer reply explains whether localization is incomplete, disabled or exposed differently in this build.

Why manual file edits are a poor beta fix

Changing locale files or copying launch parameters from another Unreal Engine game can produce broken text, fail after an update or invalidate a useful bug report. There is no official Frostrail file-edit procedure to cite.

Use the supported menus that exist, keep the build current, and send the mismatch through the beta report channel.

Frequently asked questions

Frostrail 中文怎么设置?

Check the Playtest's in-game language or accessibility menus and Steam Properties. If Simplified Chinese is absent from both, there is no publicly documented supported method for enabling it in the current beta.

Frostrail 没有中文吗?

Steam still lists Simplified Chinese interface and subtitles for the planned game, but several Closed Beta players report that the option is not visible. That does not show that launch support was cancelled.

Should I edit Frostrail configuration files to enable Chinese?

No official file-edit procedure is public. Avoid copied launch flags or locale edits because they can break text, be overwritten by updates and weaken a useful beta report.
