3. Once you see a message confirming the change, exit the client and restart the game.

※ All languages except English are currently in beta version. Some content may not yet be fully translated. Major content will be updated first, and the team will strive to improve language support as quickly as possible.

※ If any translation errors or typos are found, please contact our [Support](https://support.msu.io/hc/en-us).
