Issue booting up an Xbox One game I bought from the Hong Kong Microsoft Store

Hello,

Yes, you can purchase an Xbox One and use it in Hong Kong. However, you'll have issues purchasing/downloading content digitally as the console won't be available in Hong Kong at launch so there won't be a digital store for you. If you were to purchase games
NTSC or PAL they should work as the Xbox One is going to be region locked.

The only issue you may have in regards to this is the power supply that you would receive. I believe Hong Kong is 220v, United States is 110v, it's currently unknown what sort of power supply will ship with the Xbox One but as the console won't be released
in Hong Kong at launch you won't be able to get a 220v power supply from Hong Kong Xbox Support until it is.

Never mind, after digitally downloading the game, all I had to do was find the game on the Canadian store. I am currently residing in China but am Canadian; therefore, had to change my Xbox's store to Canada versus Hong Kong (Beta did not show up in Hong Kong
xbox store).

I don't know how to check but I have it set to Hong Kong SAR and in live in Hong Kong SAR . Also when I try to visit the Microsoft store and buy the vbuck there is no buy option. And no price is written.

So not the Xbox and the Microsoft is allowing me to buy vbucks .in fortnite and the store . please help..

So i tried again. Halo installed in Chinese (in-game text and voices) properly, so that one is fine.

Call of Duty apparently had no option to change the subtitles language at all.

Far cry 4 had the option to change subtitles language in the game menu, but chinese was not one of them.

Both Call of duty and Far cry 4 are available in the Hong Kong app store. But there is no way to know rhe supported languages in the app store. If i buy it from the hong kong app store then would the games get installed in their chinese versions?

I am assuming that that all the games in the Hong kong app store would support chinese, at least with subtitles. Is that an incorrect assumption?

"you cannot download any content outside your home region thats region locked"

And how do I know which game is region locked and which is not? Currently I only know if I try to buy it (and I have the necessary Microsoft points). This is not exactly user friendly. If I am outside my home region then Xbox Live should NOT show the region
locked games among the purchasable game list.

"goto hongkong and create an account there"

You mean I should quit my job and live in Hong Kong just to get a working Xbox Live account?? If I create a Hong Kong account and use it in China then the same problem can easily happen (that the games in the Hong Kong Xbox Live store are region locked to
Hong Kong).

"nope due to international laws on distibution and copyright some content cannot be distibuted freely"

This is NOT "free distribution": I am Hungarian, I have a Hungarian Xbox Live account and I bought Microsoft points in Hungary. This means I should be able to download a content meant for Hungarians. The Hungarian Xbox Live store is meant for Hungarians,
isn't it?
