Inquiry about Microsoft stores

  • I want to buy the Sea of Thieves, but in the same store of Microsoft Argentina they are selling it 30 Dollars more expensive than in the US Store. That's why I planned to buy it directly in the US, but my question is:

    • Will I have problems using it?
      I do not know the Microsoft policy for these things, but in steam if you buy a game from the Argentine region you can only use it in this region. I'm worried if Microsoft has something similar.

    • If I buy in the USA, will the client end up linked only to the NA servers without the possibility of moving to the LA servers?
      I know it does not usually happen but maybe they know something that I do not ...

    • Some other problem that may remain in the inkwell ...

    Greetings

    Consulta sobre las tiendas de Microsoft
    Quiero comprar el Sea of Thieves, pero en la misma tienda de Microsoft argentina lo están vendiendo 30 Dolares mas caro que en la Tienda de EEUU. Por eso planeaba comprarlo directamente en EEUU, pero mi duda es:

    • ¿Tendré problemas para usarlo?
      Desconozco la política de Microsoft para estas cosas, pero en steam si compras un juego de la región argentina solo lo podes usar en esta región. Me preocupa si Microsoft tiene algo similar.

    • ¿Si compro en EEUU, el cliente terminara vinculado solo a los servers NA sin posibilidad de moverme a los servers LA?
      Se que no suele pasar pero quizás saben algo que yo no...

    • Algún otro problema que pueda quedarme en el tintero...

    Saludos.

  • @dyozz You will have to buy it from Argentina's Microsoft Store. The reason it is expensive is due to .vat that is applied to every country individually.

    My country, for example, gets .vat applied the normal cost. The "starting" ground is $59.99, but us, outside of US or UK, have to go with the more expensive variation. Btw, I also had to pay up $30 above the base $60.

    Honestly, just pay up and be calm that it's as it is, I don't know if anyone might have any experience with this, but if I were you, I would pre-order to at least get the Black Dog Pack and play safely in Argentina. :)
