If you run into this problem, the current temporary solution is to switch the console language to English or another language through the PS5 main menu: Settings > System > Language > Console Language.
For the PC version, change the Windows display language to English or another language through the system settings: Settings > Time & Language > Language & Region > Windows display language.
GameScience has assured players they are actively working on fixing this issue and will address it in a future patch, while also issuing an apology for the inconvenience caused.
