Hello!

I’m not sure if this has been asked before or not, in my brief search I did not find anything useful but,

I come from Europe and due to an Exchange Course from my school I am now in Japan for some months. I heard some stories about downloading and such being illegal here, and since Guild Wars 2 sometimes needs to download new content, I wonder if I can still play GW2 here.

Many thanks!

Many people play Guild Wars and Guild Wars 2 from Japan. I know of no laws that restrict downloading or updating the content of our game. You’re welcome to check into this with your local authorities, but we’ve had players in Japan since 2005, and I seriously doubt they’re all breaking the law.
