    Now it's doing it again on Destiny as well as Diablo III. English settings with German achievements. It might have someting to do with the fact that I live in Germany - but c'mon I don't know that much German, yet. Please fix this so I can track my progress,

    achievements in a different language

    After some research it seems like it's kind of an issue with the achievement system... in a way. Essentially because your in Italy, the location of your Xbox is forcing achievements to be translated into the local language and from what I've seen there is
    no way around this. Sorry it's not much of an answer. For reference, see this;

    Same problem here, got my console in English/UK but some games show me the achievements in spanish.

    Not only that, but if I go to "other achievements" (xbox360's) absolutely *all* games and achievements appear in spanish.

    This is very annoying, please fix asap

    Invoked By Red is correct, the achievements display in the local language of where your IP address is listed. So if you are in Italy, it will be Italian. If you are in Spain it will be Spanish.

    If you went to the US or UK with your consoles then they would all show in English in your history as well as unlocking in English.

    The console settings are for what the Dashboard will display in and act as a default for games with no language select option. The store is based on your account and achievements on your IP.

    If you MUST see achievements in English then your only current option (excluding moving) is to VPN your connection to an English speaking country. Whether Microsoft will change this, who knows but they are looking at feedback all the time so it is possible
    it could be on their list of features to add.

    Achievements in Different Language??!!!

    Hi All,

    Well I tried deleting my profile etc but to no avail unfortunately. It even appears in Asian language via the web browser when I'm logged in that way. Plus when my friend views the achievements it also appears in Asian. I've raised a post with Support
    so I'll see if there is anything that can be attempted further. It really wouldn't bother me but I'm hunting achievements and I don't know which ones are remaining because I can't read it! Cheers.
