alhart21 Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Hiyas. I'm hoping to find an answer here because no one seems to know. My friend is a Euro and has a PAL Xbox360. I'm in the States with an NTSC version. With most games this isn't a problem on xbox, however, we have heard that Blizzard is choosing to region lock the console version of Diablo and won't let you choose a Euro or US server, that it will just automatically place you on a server based on where you live. Is this correct? Will we be able to choose a server and play together? Or will it be region free and we can play with anyone on our friends list? We'd like to find out before we plunk down the 120 dollars for two games. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azrael008uk Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Your question is a little confusing. At first it sounds like you're worried the disc will be region locked and almost every XBox 360 is. However as you carry on it sounds like you're worrying about the servers being region locked which could potentially result in UK playsers not being able to play with their US buddies for example. This was a point of frustration for me in "Defiance" though it didn't stop me from enjoying the game. I'm not sure of the answer but with a maximum of 4 player coop I think that though local servers may be encouraged you should be able to play with your buddies accross the pond.

alhart21 Posted August 28, 2013 Author Share Posted August 28, 2013 Hi Az. Yeah, I'm worried about a defiance type scenario. We both bought the game and were quite upset we couldn't play together. I wanted to make sure this wouldn't be the case with D3. Sorry if the post was unclear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stianpuz Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I would also like to know this actually ;o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxJUSTINxx Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 I doubt the servers will be region locked as you host the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gackt Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I seriously doubt this game will have region locked play...although I would not mind at all since randoms I play with won't be(or shouldn't be) overly laggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLoctopus Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 The game is Multi-region. You can even set it to only allow certain regions to play with you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
