PS4. Can't invite friends from different regions
on: November 15, 2017, 07:33:00 PM
Basically i can't invite or accept invitations if the friend bought the game from a different region. The invite msg says (view game in ps store)
Plz fix that 🤗

Ja, we encountered this issue as well. Just create a PSN account in your friend's region, download their version of the client, and you can play it on your account without restrictions (or just have your buddy do it instead). I think it's only separated by EU and US versions, this is what I personally encountered.

I have a US and can confirm that this works, a bit inconvenient though. It's a good work around till the divs can fix 👍

Thank you for sharing , much appreciated 🤗

Having the game region locked is quite annoying ... In this day and age region locks sound so outdated ...

Hi, guys!

This is a restriction of the platform itself. It doesn't depend on us.
