Silver-I-Chariot Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I would like to wrap up Far Cry 4 but their shitty DLC costs 15 euros and it hasn't been on sale for months. I refuse to pay such an outrageous price for the DLC. My main account is German but the DLC costs less than half of that on the Turkish store. I have bought games from the Turkish store before and played them on my main account without any problems. But is it possible to access DLCs on my main account that I bought on a different region?

Nauticus87 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 DLC is region-locked so, for example, EU DLC will only work on the EU version of the game. Which gets pretty expensive when doing multiple stacks with DLC (looking at you DJMax Respect). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what region do games on the Turkish store belong to? Technically Turkey is not really Europe but maybe Sony lumped it together with the rest of the European countries or something?

Stevieboy Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 DLCs from another region will generally play on any account, but the region of the DLC has to match the region of the base game or the game won't be able to recognise it. As far as Sony are concerned, I believe Turkey is classed as EU region. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilanYildirim Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 German and Turkey and both EU region. Your question is, if it's possible to play from different countries and the answer is, yes ( as long as they are from same region and game doesn't have account locked DLC system like rage 2 ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntingFever Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 DLC is region locked 99.9% of the time so always ensure that both the game and DLC come from the same country, else you will end up wasting money on something that doesn't work. When it comes to the EU in particular, there are all kinds of weird and random dependencies with regards to compatibility so it's not worth the hassle of chancing it just to save a few quid - make sure both the game and DLC are from the same country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldenShaka Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Oh cool, i thought that if I'd buy dlc for my imports (Europe) i could not play them on my main US account. So all purchased from the same region and i can play it on any region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver-I-Chariot Posted October 21, 2020 Author Share Posted October 21, 2020 Thanks guys, I tried it out and it works fine! Playing the DLC on my main account now and no problems, trophies pop too. I suppose it really doesn't matter if you buy the main game and dlc from different stores, as long as both are in the same region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMYJC Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 (edited) Sorry for the intrusion, my main account is Saudi, and I want to buy the Arkham Trilogy from turkish. So, will all the DLC come to play on my main account, and also the same thing with Cuphead? Edited December 22, 2022 by IMYJC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
