I was debating on getting Watchdogs DeadSec or just picking up our version over here (without any DLC grrrr...) and also getting the Black Chest version of AC4 both for the 360. My understanding is that I can play the games without using a UK gamertag or anything like that but that I may need a UK gamertag to redeem and access the DLC? Is that how it works?
Edit: Also, if I play the UK versions on my US 360 and CANT access the UK DLC, can I buy the US DLC and use it with the UK game? <brain explodes>
Thanks for the clarification oh wise ones!  |
Based on my finding, uplay region lock is most likely the upass lock depending on your uplay account region. That is you won't be able to activate the pass on your US account with UK copy of the game.
Standard gameplay will not be locked unless they specifically said to have region lock. Slightly different with Xbox as publishers can region lock it but they seemed to have dropped the idea for few years already.
You will not be able to purchase US dlc with UK disc as the system will treat it as you don't have the base game. Most likely the problem is with the language content i am not sure. That was what happened last year but I am not sure if they lifted that but I doubt they did.
If you want I can look deeper into it and see what I can find
