Turning on Japanese Language Pack DLC

How to play Tomb Raider in Japanese
using the Japanese Language Pack DLC

1. Buy Japanese DLC in Steam Library

In the Steam Store purchase and download the Japanese Language Pack DLC

(note: you will need a Steam version of Tomb Raider)

2. Change game-play language to Japanese

Next you will need to change your Game Play Language to 日本語.
This is done in the Tomb Raider Properties found in the library.

To change the Game Play Language:

• Go to your Library Page
  
  
• [alt click] on Tomb Raider in the Library list to open the menu
  
  
• Select Properties at the bottom on the menu
  
  
• Move to the Language page
  
  
• Then select Japanese from the List of Languages in the drop down list.

3. Wait for Steam to download the Japanese files

This could take more than a few minutes depending on server connection speed.

4. Launch Tomb Raider (トウームレイダー)

Now when you launch Tomb Raider it will be in Japanese.

It doesn't work for me despite the game downloads 2GB files. I mean.. I cannot even change the game to japanese in properties even if I got the japanese language pack, downloaded it ad checked it in the files. I really appreciate if someone could help me solve that issue.

It doesn´t work for me, the DLC doesn´t do anything :c

Guide works. Language download was just over 2 GB. Annoying that there's no way to get Japanese dialog with English subtitles.
