Microsoft: Xbox One will region lock

According to what reported by Digital Trends , Microsoft stated that Xbox One, like Xbox 360, will be region-locked, this means that licences issued on different markets from the region of the console can not be played. For example, we can turn on our console NTSC games from the United States or those coming from Japan.

A spokesman for the Redmond giant would be expressed in the following words: " As the film industry and also record that game must meet specific guidelines for each region before the titles may be placed on the market. We will continue to work with our partners to follow these directives also with Xbox One ".

No surprise then on Xbox One because, as I said, even Xbox 360 and Xbox have the territorial lockout.
