    Hey Duders, just a question if i may. I live in Malaysia, but i have a UK PS4. I have been buying my PS4 games directly from the UKPSN Store since i got here. However, it works out so much cheaper to buy the games with my Malaysian account i've just setup today on my ps4. However, i do not have psplus for that account. In essence, is there a way to buy the game for my Malaysian account and have access to it on my UK account?

    Thanks!

    Yes, you can do this. Basically, if you buy and start downloading on the Malaysian account the game still shows up when you log into your other account; its the same concept as having a Japanese account and buying games to play on your North American profile.

    @thelark: Sure can! I think the PS3 handled things the same way too.

    How exactly are they cheaper? Is it just the currency pair fluctuation that causes that? I would think Sony would have that under control.

    @jerrywhitman1: It usually costs around 50 pounds per game on the UK Store. However, on the Malaysian store games are around 180 Ringgit which converted to pounds works out at around 35 pounds or so.

    Wow. I would buy all my games on the Malaysian side.
