Prepare the account and client

1. Open the official page for your chosen service and confirm it is the version you intend to play.
2. Read registration eligibility and verification prompts on that service. This research does not establish foreign-phone acceptance or individual account eligibility.
3. Download through the service’s official client route, then check the current access notice.
4. For global Steam/PURPLE sharing, use official linking only after checking which account already holds your character.

If you are playing from the US

NC’s global FAQ confirms North American server locations. That is an announced service region, not a guarantee that every account, country or network can access every world. Confirm the launcher’s available service and current account rules before using a Taiwan workaround.

Check location eligibility before downloading Global

NC’s Global support FAQ lists these restricted territories: China, Vietnam, Cuba, Syria, Hong Kong, Republic of Korea, Taiwan, Macau, Russian Federation, Belarus, Belgium, Netherlands, Curacao, Bonaire, Saint Maarten, Aruba, Serbia and Slovakia. The restriction covers both payments and play; this is the publisher’s list checked October 7, not a personal eligibility assessment.

Create on the service you intend to keep

1. Read the Global country FAQ, or use the Taiwan/Korea official service for a separately supported regional account.
2. For eligible Global play, choose the retail Steam/PURPLE client on Windows PC.
3. At character selection follow Region → Faction → Server; match all three with friends.
4. Keep existing Global progress on its original NC/Steam identity when sharing platforms.
5. If a country or identity prompt blocks registration, use the official service’s support route; a network-path change is not evidence the account is eligible.
