CHAOS;CHILD: Buying digital PC version
Outdated
This page is for the old version of the CHAOS;CHILD PC English Patch that combined the Vita English scripts with the Japanese PC version.
The current version of our patch works with the official English Steam release and doesn't require any other versions of the game.
Previous contents
Assuming you don’t live in Japan, you will need to use a Japanese proxy/VPN to buy a digital copy of CHAOS;CHILD for PC. If you don’t have access to such, you can use Tor:
Setting up Tor
- Download and install Tor Browser.
- Run the program once, then close it again.
- Find the directory you installed Tor Browser in.
- Go to
Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Tor
and opentorrc
in your text editor (e.g. Notepad). -
Add the following two lines:
ExitNodes {jp} StrictNodes 1
- Start Tor Browser again.
- Open the menu, go to Options, select Privacy.
- Uncheck “Restrict third party cookies and other tracking data”.
- Uncheck “Always use private browsing mode”. Tor Browser will ask to be restarted. Allow it.
Buying the game
In the following guide, do everything labeled “with proxy” while connecting through your proxy/VPN (or in Tor Browser), and everything labeled “without proxy” with your proxy/VPN turned off (or in your regular web browser).
- With proxy: Register on DMM.com.
- Without proxy: Login on DMM.com, then top up DMM points. One Point = One Yen, so top up as many as CHAOS;CHILD currently costs.
- DMM no longer accepts Western credit cards for direct game purchases. Buying DMM points with your credit card and using them to buy games may work. However, we have only tested this with PayPal.
- With proxy: Buy CHAOS;CHILD.
- With proxy: Go to your game library, click CHAOS;CHILD. Right click buttons 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 as well as the button with the download icon above, click “Save Link As…” for each, and save the files to the same folder, not changing the file names.
