    It's hard to change with that.. make a new account with vpn ..and always log on in to the account with vpn.. just after u bought the game ( billing address) with the location that u want .. then u can off the vpn

    same problem






    It says your last log in country was United States

    You'll need to login to the Steam Client in this country to be eligible to change countries.

    Your last Steam Client login country was: United States

    You will not be able to change your country until you login into Steam from this new country.

    mhm is your location really USA right now ?
    Maybe try another vpn worked every time for me so far with russian games
    Idk maybe steam hardened the restrictions last time i tried was around 4 months but i got no money on my wallet loadet it after region change

    You can buy a steam gift card with your wallet and send it to an new account probably this helps you but i think its only possible at an game stop so far..... allright got no ideas sry ^^

    you know that if you change region your currency will change too right? and i don't think you will get those moneys back. Why do you want to change your region to china anyways?

    I've kind of done this very often. I used India and Russia for cheap games . To change your region make sure you do a restart of your PC. Then start the VPN with your desired country. After that start steam, don't worry about wallet money they do get converted according to current conversion rates. Buy the game and that it's, use VPN to play the game but most of the game will lose their steam lock in 3-4 Month and then you can play without VPN. I'm playing game such as MGSV, BO3,W3,HITMAN without using VPN . Hope this helps. One more thing, don't change countries often 'cause then steam won't let you change region more than once in a month.
