Why is this not possible? As a german player who generally prefers original VOs this is a real barrier!

Especially when the store Information is bound to the regional settings.

Please change that!

Setiing console and game language to English without changing the country

Hello,

You can change your Xbox Live account language without changing your country only if your country or region supports multiple languages (for example, Canada).

Germany supports only German.

Hope this answers your question.

xbox one language. english in austria/germany?

Sadly, there's no way to set the system language to English if you don't live in an English speaking country. I have the same problem, I absolutely hate the Brazilian Portuguese dubbed games and keep my settings as English/Canada (because Canada is more awesome, sorry US), but can't use credit card or Xbox Movies without resetting the system.
For now, the best we can do is vote in one of the several Xbox Feedback demands to dissociate languages from region on Xbox or let you download games on a language different from the system language.

That's not changing your region or language. That's your locale on your console. The only way to change the account region language would be by going to the link I gave you above and following the directions under Change your Xbox LIVE account language.
You followed the directions for Change your Xbox 360 console language.

The console language does not affect the language of the game it's only for family settings and WiFi settings if you use those two things. The Xbox LIVE account language is what's going to affect the language of the game and your account.

But as I said, ultimately it's up to the developer to make it so there are multiple language options from within the games menu. Without those two options available to you, you will not be able to change the language of a.) your account (if there's no preferred
language drop down) or b.) change the language of the game (if there's no settings to change the game language).

Because as mentioned you took the risk

You cant change the region nor the language WITHOUT Changing your account region rebuying the content

Redownloading the content DOESNT change the content nor localization

Xbox live regions are NOT based on continent.

It is based on your country as stuart mentioned changing your account region to get content you arent supposed to will cause download issues

(( you can change the locale language of the dashboard in settings however online games and content will still be decided by the region of the account

if english is not offically supported in the region of the account you cannot change to it

once set a region of an account cannot be changed

nothing can be transfered between accounts not gamerscore or content ))

how can i change the dashboard language ??

when i disconnect from XBL the language become english , when i connect its back to french ??

((To change the language: Settings > System > Console Settings > Language and Locale > Language > Select the language you want.

You can not change the region on your console and you can't transfer a gamerscore)

this option don't change the dashboard language .

Change language without changing Region!
