That sucks, have you not tried buying and redeeming with a vpn? Most of my purchases are from the Brazil store. It’s a measly 3.8gb lol

Just an FYI - be careful using VPNs with Microsoft stuff. I believe it’s against their T&C and they can ban your account. Not saying it’ll happen, just be careful.

I never got around to using VPN. Nonetheless, with the devaluation of our currency, I would end up paying double the price I’d normally pay if the game was available on my region.
On the other hand, it must be nice for you since new releases are £33 when bought from the Brazilian store instead of £60.

Yeah it’s one of things that’s technically not allowed, but never heard anyone actually get a ban.
Yes it is lol 
but I believe the tax goes to Brazil instead of UK so there’s always that!
Yeah, the tax is included in the BR price! In Valhalla’s case, for example, the game costs R$ 249,58 + R$ 30,37 tax.
Now if only they made better use of our taxes

First time playing Control, the ultimate XSX version, and shocked that it looks worse than QB. Yes it has Ray tracing (playing the graphics mode) but the character models and the detail in background graphics is definetly a step below QB (on XSX and Xbox one x), Kind of a fail for Remedy, not the next gen patch, but the graphics of the game in general. Very rough animation too.

The Division 2’s next-gen patch is live, but the console still displays it as an Xbox One game, even though it is Gen9Aware.
Ride 4 updated right away, probably because the next-gen version was built on GDK.

It’s never going to be optimised by the sounds of it;
Oh, that’s odd. Maybe they jumped the gun with the store listing?
They should address it quickly to not fall into false advertising.
Oddly enough, just like Star Wars Jedi and For Honor, it is still showing as an Xbox One game on the Series X|S.
I wonder what are their criteria to give a game the Optimized badge.

I’m not sure… looks really good now at 4k 60
Really wish that Ubisoft would add The Division 2 to Ubisoft Connect so I can transfer my save file from PS4 to Xbox.

What’s cool about this game is you get a 10% discount if you’re a gamepass ultimate/EA Play subscriber
