Unfortunately I'm not a whizz on purchasing from cross regions, but it's possible and more accessible (AFAIK) from Russia.

Wow great price! Never used this method can it be done using an iPad/iPhone as my laptop is really old and slow?

I can't see why not bud. It'd be a pain though, I'd imagine.

Its best doing it on the website through the link provided but essentially all you need to do is add a russian address to your account hilton hotel in moscow for example then search for websites selling gift cards in rubles (seagm is the one i used before) buy it and then when you select forza 7 to buy you can either pay by card or redeem gift card click that one then put the code you get from the website you bought the currency from then it will be added to your account and then you can enjoy the game
Sorry for the grammar just wanted to explain it quickly for you

worked a treat, cheers. Came to £26.26 for 2k rubles. And the game is 1999. Confirmed added to my account.

I did this this morning for the Ultimate Edition and it worked.
Do not bother using Revolut, that method has been blocked.
Bought 3,500 rubles worth of points (works out at about £45), entered the gift codes on the Russian xbox store and immediately preordered the game. It worked a treat!

Be warned, their default credit/debit card payment provider can ask for ID and photos of yourself.

I paid £80 for the Ultimate Edition like a chump.
Granted it was using Bing Rewards, so it only cost me months of my life.
Hot hot hot!

Was looking into this yesterday, but couldn't find many places to buy Russian credit. The couple of places I did find looked a bit dodgy. Is plati.ru safe and legitimate?

You can purchase credit direct from Microsoft. I can't seem to link the page in because it's giving me an invalid character warning...but if you go to microsoft.com. Scroll to the bottom left of the page and click Russia. You can find the Xbox credit (2,000 ruble for £25.57). I'd imagine a fake address based in Russia would be required to checkout, though.
At least this is my understanding of it all. Can anybody confirm said method would include the code being emailed?

Hmm, so the difference between them:
Forza Motorsport 7 Ultimate Edition - The Forza Motorsport 7 Ultimate Edition includes the Forza Motorsport 7 Car Pass, the Day One Car Pack, and VIP membership.
Forza Motorsport 7 Deluxe Edition - The Forza Motorsport 7 Deluxe Edition includes the Day One Car Pack and VIP membership.
Forza Motorsport 7 Standard Edition - Experience the thrill of motorsport at the limit with the most comprehensive, beautiful and authentic racing game ever made.
The question though, what is contained within each of those 'features'?....
Is this a currency benefit. Or does Microsoft favour Egypt and Russia. Heat for the effort.

It's inconsistent. Some of it might be down to currency-based benefits. But the the prices vary between the different markets. South America and Russia are generally cheaper than Europe, but there are some games that are cheaper in Europe.

Interesting,I will keep an eye on this for the future.

Cracking deal, thanks for posting!
So basically the standard edition has 32 tracks and 700 cars for £25 and the ultimate edition has 42 extra cars and some in game credits for £17 more.
Well that's a hard decision!

Sort of. The ultimate gets you the 42 cars in all the car packs, plus another day one car pack. You get early access, and you get VIP boost which is usually like extra money for every race you do in the game. With that you also get a bunch of free cars and driver gear to start with.
I have the ultimate because I like all the car packs which are usually expensive to start with. They often keep back quite a few of the best cars to use online in these packs, as you might expect.....
Opening post
I'll point out that it's actually cheaper on the Egyptian Xbox Store at £22.38 (535 EGP).
Here is ChrisUK's Xbox One - buying from Colombia guide (works for all regions) guide and Silhouette's Xbox One - Buying from Other Regions *WITH* A VPN (Virtual Private Network)guide for reference :smile:
