FFXIV region lock problems

[TessaJalloh]

This is due to the linking of PSN accounts to SE accounts. they have to match regions as part of the agreement with sony or something along those lines whilst running through PSN.

You may just have to bite the bullet and make that extra psn account. it's not like it will kill you, and it removes the obstacle preventing her from playing on her ps4. I do hope Sony refunds your unusable copy though.

Hi.
My friend has PS3 account which he wanted upgrade with Windows licence. he sometimes wnat play on PS3, sometimes on PC.
Problem is, that Mog station dont accept bought code from NA Sqaure shop, cause it is regional locked. Damn, well. Money are gone, code is valid, but can not be applied.

What now? Is any chance change that code for european account?

so ..... was it absolutely news to you, that to play an EU account you need an EU game? (Australia isn't EU btw)

The APAC SE defaults to EU. When the fan fests were up I got the chance to buy tickets to the London Fan Fest because the plane flights aren't like $1000+ each.

The last post about this topic was dated in July so replying it is pretty pointless.

@JDzacovsky contact Customer Support about that.
