TERA Getting Region Locked On Steam Tomorrow


tera_foa_08

En Masse Entertainment has announced that, due to pressure from foreign publishers, a region restriction will be enforced on Steam downloads of TERA. The affected regions include “certain European countries and Russia.” While players from these regions will be able to use the game, the Steam store page and download will no longer be accessible, and players who delete the game may find themselves unable to reinstall it via Steam.

The good news is that while Steam access is being restricted, you’ll still be able to download the game from TERA’s website and play that way. The accounts themselves are not being restricted.

Our decision to enforce this region restriction was influenced by external pressure from the publishers of TERA in these regions. However, TERA (as published by En Masse Entertainment) can still be downloaded directly from our download page by players in Europe, South America, and Russia for play on our servers.
