The game supports a wide variety of languages for both interface text and full audio dubbing.
The original KCD was praised for its obsessive accuracy—from the alchemy system to the way armor rusts. But one area where it fell short was linguistic authenticity. Characters spoke modern English (or German, French, etc. depending on the dub) with occasional faux-Czech accents.
