Days Gone is an open-world action-adventure game set in a harsh wilderness two years after a devastating global pandemic.
Hello,
is the region lock based on geographic location or steam billing account information? I'm in Japan but my Steam account is from Portugal, will this activate in my account despite my physical location?
Thank you!
EDIT: If anyone's wondering, the game activates successfully if you're traveling or residing in Japan as long as your Steam account is from one of the available regions! It just worked for me. It may be related to this news, who knows? :) https://www.theverge.com/2021/1/20/22240330/valve-steam-geo-blocking-european-commission-eu-fine-bandai-namco-capcom-focus-home-zenimax#:~:text=Share%20All%20sharing%20options%20for,blocking%20Steam%20games%20in%20EU&text=Valve%20and%20five%20PC%20video,in%20the%20European%20Economic%20Area.
Great news! Thank you for sharing!
Have fun! :)
Hi there, you would still need to use a VPN to make the code work as it takes both things into consideration as far as I'm aware.
would I be eligible for refund if it fails to activate due to that reason? I'm not sure I want to risk using VPN on Steam.
Thank you
If you fail to activate you'll get a refund.
