<Callout title="Shopware Language Pack Deprecation" type="warning">

The **Language Pack plugin** will be **deprecated in Shopware 6.8**. Shopware is introducing a new built-in translation system that will replace the need for the LanguagePack plugin.

Starting with Shopware 6.7.3, you can use the new `bin/console snippet:check-files` command to check translation files, or use the `--fix` parameter to automate the migration process.

For more information about the migration, see the [translation handling upgrade guide](https://developer.shopware.com/docs/resources/references/upgrades/core/translation/language-pack-migration.html#migration-guide-language-pack-plugin-%E2%86%92-integrated-translation-handling).
