Square Enix: No Region Locking for European Deus Ex: Human Revolution

August 18, 2011

Square Enix has confirmed that it has no plans to region-lock the European version of Deus Ex: Human Revolution for Windows.

"We're aware of some discussion regarding the planned region-locking of boxed PC versions of Deus Ex: Human Revolution and, after careful review, we have decided not to implement this in the UK/Europe," wrote Square Enix mastering manager Jason Walker (via Rock Paper Shotgun).

Walker went on to say that this applies to all of Europe. This is particularly good news for Australians who may want to import the game from somewhere else in Europe where the game might be cheaper.

AFAIK all 360 games have to be region locked.

Are the 360 games region locked?(since no one ares about the PC version being so)

Copyright infringement is nothing more than civil disobedience to a bad set of laws. Let's renegotiate them.
