Moving to UK from USA - PS4 format

[Quoyan]

I can confirm that PS4 (and PS3) no longer need a stepdown converter in countries like the UK. They come with universal power supplies, thankfully, so you just need a travel adapter for the plug or ideally, a replacement power cable (easily obtained for peanuts since it's a generic type).

Everything else Ash_ said is 100% accurate. The only advantage to buying a local PS4 is that you can play local Blu-ray/DVD discs since the UK is in a silly region, but if you already have a collection or don't care then it's better to stick with your current PS4 and pick up a cheap local BD player if you decide you want to buy discs in your new home too.

This is just a guess but couldn't they get around that by just buying the USA versions online? I'm sure I've seen a bunch of blu-rays on Amazon where you have to select which region you want when you buy it.

Edit:

Same for however you pay for the sub on the PS4, if you can buy it through PSN and PSN supports PayPal, get a PayPal account going for your husband too.

For PS+, they can probably buy NA codes online, but that's only if they play games that need it. XIV doesn't require a PS+ sub

Btw, if you're planning on moving to an EU realm, I play on the EU realm Louisoix, which has free transfers to it as it is considered a "New World". This way you can get some friends to play with right off the bat.

I'm also on Louie! o/
If you do decide to hop servers, OP, and end up on Louisoix, feel free to hit me up for dungeons and trials and just general chatter
