Firstly, why I am posting this? As a result of it is a subject, that’s ignored an excessive amount of. Possibly this doesn’t have an effect on you, however but it nonetheless impacts tons of players around the globe. In order that’s why we have to combat on this case collectively and get Microsoft consideration. As a result of in the event that they actually care about all of the players, that is the place they should begin to make modifications.
So to the subject, the final time that Xbox expanded their help was in 2014 when Slovakia and the Center East continent bought Xbox Dwell… 9 years in the past… There are tons of players in these but unsupported international locations that may like to get pleasure from Xbox video games, Xbox providers and different Xbox stuff, however they cannot with out utilizing VPN, altering areas and utilizing faux handle in a supported nation. (And tons of informal players is not going to even do this).
I am from Europe and in a rustic that’s an EU member. There are 9 international locations inside EU that at the moment do not need help, and 19 international locations in the entire Europe (Record right here) this already is not a small market and the place is the remainder of the world. In brief Xbox formally help lower than 50 international locations based mostly on their official checklist.
The Humorous factor is, tons of these international locations (that haven’t any Xbox) have full help on Steam, Epic, GOG, Origin… Spotify, YouTube Premium, Netflix, HBO, Disney+ and so on. All absolutely formally supported. Even for PS and Sony providers and Nintendo and theirs…
However yeah, I do know. That is not truthful, Microsoft is that this tiny little begin up that may’t increase into a worldwide model over 10 years. And I am performing like they’re one of many largest companies on this planet or one thing. Sorry /s
TL;DR: Xbox formally help lower than 50 international locations and the final time they expanded was virtually 10 years in the past.
