    Several questions.. about Regions..


    I purchased my Xbox One in the United States, in my hometown in Texas to be exact. I live in Mexico, I brought my Xbox One here and it works just fine, heres where the questions begin:

    First Question:

    1. If I use those Xbox LIVE gold subscriptions cards from America here in Mexico, can I log on and play multiplayer WHILE being in Mexico WITHOUT chaning my Xboxs region?

    Second Question:

    2. Basically along the lines of the first one, can I DOWNLOAD and purchase games succesfully without any issue if I use an XBOX gift card purchased in America?

    Note to all: Thank you for viewing this and please excuse my extreme newbness.

    :)

    Question about regions.

    Game disks are not coded for regions for the Xbox One and the language should be based on the language that your Xbox One console is set to under Settings > System > Language and Location.

    Question about regions.

    If I buy a game outside of the U.S., will the game still be in english when I play it?

    Question about regions...

    Hello ArcticDeer54477,

    1. You are allowed to purchase content from a different country. But you'll also have to purchase a different Xbox since there are so many games that are region locked. Let's use Japan as an example. If you're console can only play NTSC, it will not
    play NTSC-J. Unless the games are Region-Free. (PAL, NTSC, NTSC-J)

    2. Migrating your account is only optional. If you move from country A to B and want all content from B to be added to your main XBL account, then you can migrate your account. If not, you can simply create a new account.

    3. From my understanding of things, VPN services are not allowed. You can keep your previous console, have all of that content from A on that console. And from B, you can have the content on there.

    Question about regions...

    The games that are free in those countries are free because of differences between the Xbox LIVE service.

    If a game is free in a other country it could be for promotion or anything else.

    If you start to download them and change your region, you get in trouble.

    I don´t know why you are asking this.

    VPN is also a two sided blade.

    Just because people do it and get away with it does not mean they won´t get in trouble one day.

    If you want a honest answer on all your questions, do not do what you asked.

    Of course it´s different if you pay for the games.

    Question about Region changing

    When you do a region change then anything that is not region specific is lost. For example, any games you want to keep that aren't available in the region you are moving to. This also includes season passes for items.

    This does not mean that your download history is lost forever, that stays with your account. It just means that some items are not accessible from some countries so you would do well to download what you want to keep before heading off and doing the region
    change.
