Sorry all you importers out there, the Xbox One will be region locked. A Microsoft spokesperson has confirmed with Digital Trends that you can not play imported games on the console.

“Similar to the movie and music industry, games must meet country-specific regulatory guidelines before they are cleared for sale,” said the Microsoft representative. “We will continue to work with our partners to follow these guidelines with Xbox One.”
