Game Skyrim Forum

Make a US PSN account, buy US dollar PSN cards online and buy the game on that.

I used to do that when i still gamed on PS3 and PS4

There is a way..

Use google maps pick a bogus US adres for your xb1 account (its all digital, so no need for real address), make a Paypal account, link the paypal account to the US xbox account and use bank transfer/credit card/scratch cards to top off the paypall account.

Now when the game asks you how you want to pay pick paypal, done

I had an xbox one as well

I don't know about XBox One - are the games region locked?

If you can order from Amazon, the current price is $59.66:

I would certainly hope Amazon can ship world wide. Maybe not.

Edited to add:

Your argument is with the Columbia XBox One store - not Bethesda.

Ask them why they are jacking the price up so much over MSRP.

I believe DLC is region locked, so a US account with a US hardcopy works fine.. however a US hardcopy with a French account can cause issues where dlc wont work etc.

this is not the case for all games tho.

I'm fairly certain Bethesda isn't responsible for the pricing differences between countries. Considering you seem to want to purchase digitally through the Xbox Live store instead of waiting a month for the physical copy, I would recommend contacting the Xbox Live support department for more information.

TBH I've never understood the pricing differences for digital copies myself.

$233,000 COP = $80.79 USD

my guess it's mostly taxe鈥媠 that raise the price in your area.

where I live in the US鈥?it costs 59.99 + 8% sales tax = $64.79 USD or $186,854.36 COP

I asked them via Twitter @XboxSupport. They say the publishers/devs are the ones that fix the prices and that I should ask Bethesda.

The point is that the game is way too expensive. And this isn't region-related. Other new games are 159k COP, which is around 59 USD. Why is Fallout 4 base game more expensive?

OP said the pricing of other new games like Syndicate, Halo 5, Siege and Battlefront are all around the usual $60, while Fallout 4 has a radically different pricing. Otherwise I would agree that it seems to be associated with taxes, but it seems odd that one game would have a different price when purchased through the same distributor (Xbox Live).

The developers wouldn't be responsible, but I suppose publishers could be. That's crazy though if that's the case.

You could try messaging GStaff as he's the global community leader. He's also very excellent about responding to questions and concerns.

I thought that was the case, but Star Wars Battlefront is 159K COP on the Xbox Digital Store, which are around 59 USD. This is what I dont understand.
