Netflix enhances language options on TV to attract global viewers
Apr 2, 2025 7:23 AM

April 2 (Reuters) - Netflix ( NFLX ) on Wednesday rolled

out enhanced language options for television viewers, allowing

users to select from the full list of available subtitles and

dubbing languages for any title.

The update aims to make Netflix's ( NFLX ) global catalog more

accessible at a time when nearly a third of all its viewership

comes from non-English language shows, the company said.

Language availability for popular titles such as South

Korean drama "Squid Game," Spanish series "Berlin" and the

Oscar-winning German film "All Quiet on the Western Front" has

helped them attract fans beyond their country of origin.

Netflix ( NFLX ) said it offers subtitles in 33 languages and audio

dubbing in 36 languages across its catalog, but the exact number

of available languages could vary by title.

Previously, users could only choose from a handful of

languages on television.

Netflix ( NFLX ) said it decided to change the limited language

availability option on TV after it received thousands of

language availability requests every month.

The feature is already available on mobile devices and web

browsers, the company said.
