worked fine for me. using vpn easy on my phone i selected south africa as the server location then using chrome went to xbox.com, signed into my account & scrolled down to the bottom of the site & changed the xbox location to south africa. found the game & clicked buy. i got 2 messages from microsoft asking me to confirm who i was by typing in the codes they'd sent me. after this i had to put in my card details. the address you enter has to match the address your card is registered to but the postcode & country can be changed so enter your actual house number, street & town but use a postcode, area & phone number from south africa. i used 2198 as the postcode, gauteng as the province & the uk embassy phone number which is: 0124217500. 5 minutes of fiddling but it work fine started downloading to my xbox straightaway.

Why do people use revolut? I do this all the time using my own credit card with no problems. I use VPN unlimited on Android which has a SA vpn.

In case it helps anyone else... I also went through VPN easy on my android phone and used revolut but initially got the payment error message then realised I hadn't actually waited for vpn easy to connect - I'd selected SA but not actually connected :smile:

Don't worry - sorted! Thanks to OP and all those who added help. Bit of a faff but wanted to work through it as it will be useful for the future :smiley:

I know having to add an address (and revoult card) is a pain the first time you do it for a country, but once done it is always there. Then you will have a nice list of the usual cheapest suspects and be able to benefit from all these cheap deals. Well worth the effort.

I am using the VPN app mentioned in a previous comment to South Africa and tried without and just adjusting the location but won't work. I have deleted my payment and added again with part South Africa address and I get an error "this payment can't be used try another method". Any ideas?

Just completed the demo, so going to go for this. Great game. very Limboesque.

I'll keep that in mind for future purchases. Thank you.

Great deal, but I couldn't get a phone number that Xbox would accept. So ended up just giving up. Address, Revolut, etc all seem fine, but it didn't matter what phone number I put in.

place someone explaine how to do this, i have used vpn, added visa card, adress and postcode from south africa but didn't work

Good price for the game for those who want it.

Played the two levels in the trial, while it looks beautiful in parts, I felt the game itself was slightly boring but that's just me so other may not. :smiley:

Worked great! Cheers!

Sorry didn't mean to post same question 3 times....it wasn't showing up so I thought it hadn't posted

Do I need to have a fake address and new payment method?

Do I need to add a new payment method?

Do you have to add a new payment method? My registered payment details aren't showing up

This worked perfect, thanks!

duno. but i forgot to turn it on with this and it errored.

Is this only for certain countries? I'm sure I've got stuff from the US Xbox site before, without the need for a VPN.

Got this game from south Africa this morning for £8.52

Do you recommend any reliable but free vpn for South Africa?

​you do need nvp

Let me chuck some heat on this deal. Nice find.

Heat added. Great price, awesome game. Forget the people that have to pay double :laughing:
