WAIT WHAT? I can buy english version now?!

how is this done?!

 

[GodParticle]

hopefuly someone else makes a thread but basically :

1. make a dummy account, set the region to japan (this is only if youre scared your main account may get banned)

2. buy xbox credit (yen) from microsoftstore (set region to japan, search for yen cards on the site. they will be sent to you within seconds)

3. buy the game, enter a japanese adress, i used the us embassy in tokyo

4. set your xbox region to us or uk or wherever you live

5. download the game

how do you set the region to japan for the store? and how do you search "yen cards"

 

[aravuus]

Bought it from Japan store, downloaded from US store. Launches fine. Playing now.

You are fucking with me

60 fps vs 30 fps, wait another 3 weeks vs play right now

Fuck

e: fuck

 

[SlickShoes]

Folk on twitch are playing the PC version, how do you get that early?

 

[DrROBschiz]

Be warned

This could get you banned on teh Bone

Someone told me people that did this for Fallout4 got the hammer

Be a famous streamer or reviewer.

 

[SmartWaffles]

Set your console region to Japanese, in System - Language & Location

Record sales on XBL Japanese store for this week confirmed.

Tempted to do this, but already pre-ordered on PC, so I'll hold off.

 

[bidguy]

settings, language, last one on the list is japanese

 

[AlphaDragoon]

Man, so it's already translated and ready to go, they're just holding onto the English release because...reasons? That's pretty scummy.

Glad the Xbone folks will get to play it at least while this trick still works. If I hadn't had to sell mine because of some money troubles I had a while ago I'd get it too.

 

[SlickShoes]

Be a famous streamer or reviewer.

Haha, fair enough!

 

[DrROBschiz]

This shit is bananas

Damnit you guys are making the 3 week wait worse

 

[E92 M3]

Why would anyone get banned for buying a game from another region? I can't believe Namco has everything translated and is making us wait for 3 weeks.

Just to confirm before I purchase, Dark Souls 3 for Xbox is just english version from Japan?

 

[Natiko]

No it can't work on PS4. There's also no Patch 1.01 so you can't play online. But yes, its working. Streaming @ www.twitch.tv/rayfoxii in a few mins

No online? That's kind of a bummer.

 

[Conezays]

Confirmed O and X are switched for those wondering so changing the button assignments in the PS4 menu is recommended if you want it to be "regular."

 

[DrROBschiz]

Im just reposting what someone said

Polishing localization my ass.

Trying to make a japan address but it's not listed among the country options on amazon?

Edit: Yeah, Japan isn't listed among the countries on amazon.co.jp when you try to change your country settings :/

 

[GodParticle]

Oh, I thought you meant on the site. I figured out how to set to there on the site and found the cards. Should be the same, yeah?

 

[E92 M3]

Confirmed here English Dark Souls 3 working on Xbox One.

Is it fully in English? How did you do it and does the online work?

 

[Sky87]

Sorry if this has been answered, but does the physical PC version use Steam as DRM? I want it in my Steam library, so i'll buy digital if i have to, even though physical is cheaper.

 

[bidguy]

if it says yen it should be right.

 

[oneida]

how is the XBO version? leaning that way because I prefer the XBO pad.

Yes it is on Steam, and my wild ass guess is that it will also utilize Denuvo.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Why isnt this topic exploding.

Is everyone seriously playing or rushing to get the Bone version lol

is there something wrong with that? I'm trying to figure out which version to get.

 

[Fakeknowledge]

Dynamic hud is easy to find, press start, go to the cog, third one across and it says HUD, just switch it to auto.

 

[KevinG]

I don't really have time to play it these next two week anyway. I just want PS4 and Xbox One comparisons.

 

[MatrixMan.EXE]

The temptation...oh lord.

Waiting to play on PS4 but...gah.

 

[Korosenai]

So set account to Japanese, buy the game on Japanese Xbox store, download it, and then switch back to English and play it all you want?

 

[Novum_Veritas]

So set account to Japanese, but the game on Japanese Xbox store, download it, and then switch back to English and play it all you want?

Yep.

 

[E92 M3]

Yep.

Is this version just the American one? Can we play online?

Hopefully MS doesn't ban for this.

 

[Kiyo]

So set account to Japanese, buy the game on Japanese Xbox store, download it, and then switch back to English and play it all you want?

No, switch back to English region xbox then download it.

 

[KevinG]

I'm also afraid that this move could get me banned on XBL. Don't want that.

How much USD is the Xbox One (Jap) version? Google says $66.

 

[DrROBschiz]

Fucking hell

 

[UglyPony]

This staggered release is the worst. 3 week media blackout just to play it blind. Thought we were past this horse shit. What could possibly be the reason for this torture?

Anyway, for the few lucky ones. How is the ps4 performance compared to Bloodborne? Did they fix that horrendous slowdown I saw earlier?

 

[Nyoro SF]

If buying games from another region's store got you banned, that would've happened eons ago.

 

[Novum_Veritas]

Is this version just the American one? Can we play online?

Hopefully MS doesn't ban for this.

It is still the Japanese version, but as already stated, this game is already done localized.
Not sure about the online, ROB said people were banned for buying Fallout 4 somewhere else, but not sure here if From does care or MS does.

 

[Retrozocker]

Confirmed here English Dark Souls 3 working on Xbox One.

WTF???

I need to get home...

Spoiler

NOW!

 

[CenturionKei]

Yep.

Is this only for xbox one? Can you do it for ps4?

 

[Novum_Veritas]

Is this only for xbox one? Can you do it for ps4?

Only Xbox One.
PS4 is Japanese only.
I think it has something to do that MS is an American company, so they have English included.

 

[artsi]

WTF is this, I hurried to get home to start the download but you can't buy the game from JP PSN anymore. I already bought the codes and added funds to my wallet too.

 

[Xeroblade]

No, switch back to English region xbox then download it.

Is it possible to do this via xbox.com?

 

[idonteven]

first boss down,was way to easy

 

[KZXcellent]

The game isn't on PSN anymore for some reason. This is weird.
