Apparently it's only free if you download it using your console. Can't visit the marketplace in a web browser or something.

On Dashboard, go to second last page to the right, and use Bing to search for "injustice". make sure it is the full game and not the demo, full game at 7.8GB while demo is only 400mb.

EDIT: migrate the account back to your country or download might be extremely slow or unable to complete, it was the case back when AC3 was free on Chinese accounts.

Thanks to Wario for tweeting.

 

[Twin Tails]

Awesome will try.

 

[cw_sasuke]

Injustice.

 

[Face it Tiger..]

It's a true injustice for boon's team.

 

[Fireblend]

That #12 happiness index spot is really paying off for us Costa Ricans I see.


... I've got nothin. Costa Rica represent!

 

[morningbus]

It's a true injustice for boon's team.

But quite a boon for cheap gamers.

Is it possible to migrate an account twice in a row? This page says you can't change your region if you've already changed it within the last three months.

That's why you make a new account

 

[bidguy]

it worked thanks

 

[thequickandthedead]

Is it possible to condemn piracy while taking advantage of this?

 

[IdreamofHIME]

What would Batman do?

 

[J-Tier]

STAY DOWN.

Yes...?

 

[Monocle]

Right, OK.

Seems to have worked. Downloading now. Thanks OP.

 

[Pudge]

Worked for me! Make a Costa Rican account and then transfer it back to the US after the download has begun, otherwise it will take significantly longer to download.

 

[ShogunX]

Is it possible to condemn piracy while taking advantage of this?

One is taking advantage of an offer to the Costa Rican users of Xbox Live the other is Piracy.

 

[SuperSah]

Do you need Gold? I don't have gold.

 

[Monocle]

Do you need Gold? I don't have gold.

Nope.

 

[SuperSah]

Nope.

Yisss. How do I go about doing this?

 

[Orochinagis]

How do you change it to US account? Mine is stuck at 0%

 

[Bsigg12]

Well I'm currently downloading!

 

[Twin Tails]

Yisss. How do I go about doing this?

Make New Account, When setting region set to Costa Rica
Download on Console
Go to my account, switch back to US region for faster download

 

[Gaaraa]

Thanks! Worked for me and successfully changed account to an Australian one so the download speed is faster

 

[Monocle]

Yisss. How do I go about doing this?

1. On your computer make a new Windows Live account with Costa Rica as your region (an Outlook address is easiest).

2. On your Xbox make a new profile, again with Costa Rica as your region.

3. Use the Outlook address when you have to enter an email.

4. Go to the tab that lets you press Y to search.

5. Search for Injustice. The first thing on the list should be the full game. Click download and make sure the file size is 7.8 gigs or thereabouts.

6. On your computer go to the Xbox account migration page. Sign in with the email address you created in step 1 and change your region to United States. (I'm not sure if you should change it to your true region if you don't live in the US.)

7. Signing in to the account migration page probably booted you out of your Xbox profile, so go back to your Xbox and sign in again. You should see the US storefront and the game should still be in your download queue.

This is exactly what I did. If there was a simpler way, oh well. It worked.

What's the end game here, Microsoft?

 

[Monocle]

Major Nelson will probably email all of us Internet AIDS. Until then I'm going to enjoy my free game.

or they will ban your account for playing an "illegitimate" copy of a game like they did to that guy who bought a copy of Halo 4 early.

I just want to know why MS was planning on giving the planet of Costa Rica free copies of Injustice? What's the bigger plan? MS going after Costa Rica hard.

 

[malfcn]

I never take advantage of this from fear of a ban from Live.

That would be mean.

 

[Cels]

so when i completed everything and switched the fresh costa rica account back to US, the download still has the spanish version (injustice: entre nosotros hay dioses), is it going to be english when i load the game?

 

[IdreamofHIME]

What language is the game in? Coz im downloading "Injustice: Entre nosotros hay dioses", I don't want no Hispanic Batman...though it's better than Ben Affleck Batman *Zing!*

EDIT:
Ok, after I migrated my account, cancelled the download and looked in my download history it's back to "Injustice: Gods Among Us". nice.

Did anyone get banned for the free Chinese Assassins Creed 3?
I mean I was playing my copy a week ago and it still works.

 

[Pudge]

I would assume so, when I hit the game's name on my downloads from the website, it routes me to the English version.

 

[IdreamofHIME]

Cancel the download.
Go to download history.
The English title will be there.
Download that.

 

[MormaPope]

How do you migrate accounts on the dash? Do you do it on the Dash? Where is a list of actual instructions? I only have to migrate the account, I got the download.

 

[Orochinagis]

It automatically changes the language when you load it in your account.

 

[richi_one]

Once download is complete can I start the game from my main account?

 

[MormaPope]

1. On your computer make a new Windows Live account with Costa Rica as your region (an Outlook address is easiest).

2. On your Xbox make a new profile, again with Costa Rica as your region.

3. Use the Outlook address when you have to enter an email.

You are a golden god. I was on the last migration steps but never migrated a account before.

Injustice here I come.

 

[jediyoshi]

Just tried it, worked fine.

If you do Slovakia, I'm pretty sure it's the same version as what you'd get in NA. Titles were the same.

 

[Bsigg12]

Once download is complete can I start the game from my main account?

Yes since it was downloaded on the same console as your main account.

 

[richi_one]

Yes since it was downloaded on the same console as your main account.

Thanks.

 

[MormaPope]

Kinda nice that this is occurring late at night, this happening during the day usually means the free well gets welded shut.

 

[AlexBasch]

Managed to nab myself a download, but a friend is having problems recovering the profile on his Xbox, anyone having this problem as well? Maybe they're fixing it already.

 

[joe2187]

Downloading now!


Suuuuuuuuuuuuper slow.

Question: will I need an online pass to play online or is the Season pass just DLC?

 

[lifeexpectancy]

Damn, I would be at work when this is going down. I'm sure they'll block it by the time I get home later this morning.

 

[Bsigg12]

There is a chance they caught it and have frozen all account migrations. The game may still work and be in English if he plays it from his main account.

No online pass.

Didn't this happen earlier with Assassins Creed 3 and I think China?

 

[AlexBasch]

No, he made another account on the website, chose Costa Rica as the region and when trying to download it he's getting errors.

Now he says he can't even create new accounts, haha.

 

[lfc11]

Just got it using Monocle's method. Thanks!

 

[Cels]

all right, thanks for all the responses.

another question: if i delete the profile that i used to dl the game, will i lose access to the game as well? i've had a 360 for like 5 years but only ever used one main profile so i don't know all the inter-account intricacies.
