Free Comics Bugged?

  • I seen the post on my SoT dashboard about the free comics. I followed the link to Amazon (UK). I seen all the wonderful comics for free. However, I am Texan and region locked to America. As a result, I cannot get the comics. Was this a bug or a feature? Is there a way for someone in America to receive the comics?

  • @maniacal-z78 I really hope some one answers this because I have the same issue.

  • Yeah, bugged for me as well (Norway)
    Both through PC and the Kindle app smartphone.

    Through the app, it states that items are not allowed to be sold anymore through Kindle, as the Google Play terms prohibited it, even though they are listed as free.

    Using the Amazon website I only get error:
    This title is not currently available for purchase Have you moved recently? You may change your country/region on the Content and devices page.
    Without any option to download it. So I am at a loss as well on how to read them.

    Perhaps Rare could add them as DLC's through Steam. That would be very nice, same as they did for The Rough Guide to Sea of Thieves.

    Anyway, just letting you know, you are not alone with this issue :)

    Cheers!

  • The free comics promotion on Amazon UK is indeed region-specific, meaning it's currently only available to users in the United Kingdom due to licensing agreements and regional restrictions. This isn't a bug—it's just how the offer is set up by Amazon.

    I understand how frustrating this can be, especially if you're following the [mod removed] and want to enjoy these comics too. Unfortunately, there isn’t a workaround for American customers at the moment. I recommend keeping an eye on our SoT dashboard and announcements for future promotions that might include America.
