How to Download the Japanese VO Pack in Wuthering Waves

Before switching the language, you have to download the VO packs. There are four different languages: English, Mandarin, Korean, and Japanese.

To download the Japanese VO Pack, you have to go through the opening cutscenes until you have access to the main menu.

Once you can open the main menu, tap or click the little cogwheel and look for the language settings tab. You’ll see both Text Language and Voice-Over Language.

Under Voice-Over Language, change the language selection to Japanese. If you haven’t downloaded the pack yet, a prompt will appear to download the Japanese language pack.

If you tap or click the download, the pack will be downloaded while the game is still running. Once it is finished, you can select the downloaded language pack, and the game will automatically switch to the downloaded Japanese audio files.

Here’s a quick list of some of the most popular VAs, their respective characters in the game, and the characters they are most known for:
