Help/Support How to get a game from another Region Store

Drak7e · March 10, 2019

Hello guys and gals!

So, I'm outside the US and the game Dragalia Lost is not available in my region App Store. Changing the region is a PAIN and I remember not being able to (last time I tried) for some Apple related prohibition of sorts (bah!).

I can't find it in any other stores and the one in iOsGods App is "broken", so it says (Do not download).

So, I'm sure someone has a great suggestion on how to do this (fingers crossed), maybe having to relay on a VPN app of sorts...

Thanks in advance for any help!

PS.: I'm on iOS 11.3.1, JB Electra.

Nope I don’t think vpn will do the trick.

I think you have to create new US apple id.

Thanks.

I'll think about it. Gotta be sure nothing would happen to screw my stuff on the phone, like syncs being affected and so.
Gonna search about this

You don't have to create a whole new AppleID for it, though it would be wise as you will reset your Billing Address every single time you switch regions. There is a option on the AppleID menu that is named "Country/Regions" where you can change your current AppleID region to something else. Also the other guy is right, VPNs don't have any effect on this.

I ended up creating the Apple ID. Got it to work, entered a new Billing Address. Tried switching back to my original ID and I didn't have to redo the Billing at all!
One thing, though.... the App Store didn't seem to change with the new ID active, I couldn't find Dragalia Lost and the main screen just kept the same!

Hummmm..... gonna try this Change Region to see.

PS.: I'm logging off ONLY the Apple ID, not the iCloud options - which would affect all my emails, photos etc.

EDIT: I just tried the Change Region in my own Apple ID and it worked!!!! YEY!! Downloading Dragalia Lost NOW! Thanks a LOT!!

EDIT 2.0 - OH NO.... Game won't start! Got a fixed japanese message on screen. I'm guessing it's because of my JB! Bah.... let's see if I can't find a bypass for this.... any ideas?

EDIT 2.1 - Ah, I'm all confused today ahaha. Just remembered I have Liberty installed, just needed to activate it. BUT.... the game still won't completely start. I see Nintendo screen, then all I get is a Blank White screen. Seems like people over at the VIP Dragalia are also having this issue with Liberty. And I'm NOT using the Liberty Beta.
