Street Fighter X Tekken Change Language Russian To - English
A unique quirk of Street Fighter X Tekken is the separation of voice acting from the text localization.
Many players seeking to change from Russian to English desire the original English dub for the Story Mode and Rival Battles. However, due to the game's bloated file size (owing to high-quality FMV cutscenes), changing the text language does not automatically change the pre-rendered cutscene audio.
In many instances, the cutscenes are video files (.bk2 or similar formats) where the audio is baked into the video track. To change the "language" of a cutscene in SFxT often requires replacing the video files entirely, not just a text config. This is why many "language patches" found on modding forums are large in size—they are essentially replacing gigabytes of video data to swap the Russian dub for the English dub.
