    Is there a way to region lock my account


    After going through strenuous amounts of effort to recover this account, I would like to know if there’s a way to block sign-ins outside of a certain region. Since before recovering the account I’ve been getting spammed with one time passcodes, and I’m hoping this will resolve that as well.

    :)

    Bought Purple Xbox One S in American with Gears of War 4 Ultimate Edition with map pack

    Gears 1 and 3 are region locked. So the only way to download those is if your account region matches your physical location and you are in a region where they are available. There is no way around region locking.

    The other games should not be region locked unless the code itself is. So the only way would be to download them in the US on a US account.

    No. In order to download something that is region locked, your account region has to match your physical location. There is no way around region locking.

    Some content is region locked. So your account region and your physical location have to match in order to download the content. There is no way around region locking.

    Error

    If a game is region locked, there is no way around that. In order to download a region locked game, your account region has to match your physical location and you have to be in a region where the game is available.
