  2. Go to <Steam-folder>\steamapps.
  3. Open appmanifest_256290.acf.
  4. Change the language to latamspanish:
  5. 	"UserConfig"
    	{
    		"language"		"latamspanish"
    	}
    
  6. Save and close the file.
  7. Start Steam and launch the game. It will now run in the Latin American Spanish localization.

Issues fixed

"Your CPU is Outdated" error

The game checks for some SSE4 instructions and if it fails, it shows an error message and refuses to run. The game doesn't use those instructions beyond that test, so bypassing is quite safe.
