Japan Won’t Get Assassin’s Creed II Or Fable III With Games For Gold Promotion

Following in the footsteps of PlayStation Plus, Microsoft is giving away two video games to Xbox Live Gold members for the rest of 2013. Right now, you can get Fable III to keep as a bonus with a paid Xbox Live membership.

… if you’re in the West. Japan has a different list of Games With Gold titles. This month’s Games With Gold title in Japan is JoyRide Turbo, an Xbox Live Arcade game. Assassin’s Creed II is on deck next month, but Ubisoft’s game won’t be available in Japan. Microsoft will not distribute any CERO Z (it’s like Japan’s ESRB AO rating) titles as part of Games With Gold and Assassin’s Creed II as well as Fable III are CERO Z games.
